5 months

Okay no excuses, I haven't written on here in a month, but I have been posting lots of pictures on Facebook, so hopefully that has been holding you over...Lots of new exciting updates!

Yesterday, Josie turned 5 MONTHS OLD! We celebrated by taking Dad lunch in the afternoon and attending a BBQ in the evening. Josie's eating habits were all over the place yesterday...we figured out why this morning--WE HAVE A TOOTH! Our Front Bottom Left Tooth has broke through as of this morning! We have officially been doing cereal/solids for a month now (2x Daily) here is what we have tried and the reactions...
(in order)
SWEET POTATO- liked
BANANAS- liked, but stopped bm's so we are going to reintroduce in a month
SQUASH- loved (our favorite veggie)
APPLESAUCE- did not like
GREEN BEANS- liked
PEARS- did not like
Switch to Oatmeal from Rice: Successful switch but we are going to do oatmeal in AM and Rice in PM.
PRUNES-loved (our favorite fruit)
CARROTS- loved
PEACHES-TBD
PEAS-TBD
MANGO-TBD

My milk supply has slowed down, so we have been supplementing 2 oz formula in each 6 oz bottle.
It has bothered me, but Andrew is so encouraging about pointing out that she is still getting majority milk and if we do have to switch to formula, that she has had only milk for 5 months. We have decided that when the formula supplement outweighs the milk amount per bottle is when we will switch to only formula. Until then, pump pump pump for me.
