Our little Declan had a sweet moment with his Uncle Scott today. Scott leaned in and kissed Declan little feet which made Declan flash an enormous smile. Then Scott walked away, looked back and Declan was grinning at him. He couldn't resist, went back in and gave Declan's toes a couple more kisses. The grinning ensued. Then Declan started lifting up his left foot towards Scott for more kisses. Such a sweetie. Uncle Scott kept saying he was leaving before sneaking back in again and again for more kisses.
Mid-afternoon Declan had some playtime in his excersaucer so we gave him some Multigrain Cheerios for the first time to see if he was interested in eating them yet. Well Declan certainly was interested in them. He isn't able to coordinate his thumb and index finger yet to pick them up but he can palm them. Bringing them to his mouth however was of no interest. He simply wanted to play with them. Daddy gave him one to eat. Declan made a funny face and then ever so slowly gummed at it until it was soft enough to swallow. Still not interested in any more after that. Guess his rice cookies are the only things he's interested in feeding himself just yet.
And we have determined after three dinners in a row... Declan LOVEs blueberries. These have to be his favourite food he's tried. So glad to have found a food he is really excited about eating.
Since Declan is getting bigger I thought it might be time to check and see if the bunny slippers from Auntie T might feet him finally. They almost do. Enough so that he was able to wear them a bit. They have little bells in them so they are kindof like toys on his feet. He was kicking and kicking making those bells ring. Then he would curl his feet up to his face and grab one bunny ear in each hand. Very entertaining.
