For the past couple of days, Cole has been showing more of an interest in solid foods. Now, I have even less of a desire to give him anything other than breastmilk than I did with Accalia. Besides the obvious benefits of delaying solids, it's just such a pain compared with lifting up your shirt and that's it! I've been eating nectarines today, yesterday and the day before, and Cole has taken to sharing my fruit snack with me. Eating solids for him, so far, is licking whatever it is. And the really cute thing is that he shivers after he tastes the food. Today he grabbed my water glass from me and was eagerly licking up water, and he was giggling as he did that. What an adventure the world of solid foods is for our little ones! So much experimenting to do.

Accalia has been adding more and more phrases to her sentences. Instead of asking me to "open this", she'll say "open this for me". Does similar things with a lot of her conversing now. She doesn't clearly pronounce some of her letter sounds yet, so I know others have a bit of trouble understanding her sometimes. I'm not concerned, though, and ready to seek out a speech therapist.
