We were told at our 6 month wellness visit that by 8 months we need to be transitioning to more of a 3-a-day eating schedule (breakfast, lunch, and dinner with snacks in-between!) I was a bit worried about how this would play out but to my surprise its worked itself out quite nicely. Lee wakes up and has "breakfast" which consists of a fruit and a 4oz bottle. He then has a snack around 10am (1/2 a bottle), then "lunch" which normally consists of a veggie and the other half of his bottle. He then has another "snack" around 3 and then "dinner" around 6:15. Dinner usually consist of a meat and veggie with something sweet for dessert. Tonight we had turkey with sweet potatoes and then a medley of apples/oranges/bananas for dessert. He loves dinner time!
BUT, ill have to say his favorite snack/after dinner treat is a banana flavored mum mum. He loves these things!! We've been working on picking the pieces up from his baby tray and putting them to our mouth. He's been doing soo well with it. So proud. ;)
Tonight we decided to just bite into a whole piece of one.
It was hilarious. He did great of course and chewed/swallowed the whole thing up!!
We may be having some difficulty in other areas but I'd say we have this eating thing down pat! :) Next up.....yogurt bites!
