Chocolate

April 27th, 2008

Here’s Evie having her first ever taste of chocolate!  Do you think she liked it?!!!

I gave her half a finger of my KitKat.  But then trying to wipe her hands while yelling “Don’t touch ANYTHING” was not so much fun.

I’ve finished expressing as well.  I had a stomach bug last week and just didn’t feel well enough to express, and as I didn’t feel too uncomfortable the next day, I just haven’t bothered since.  I still have some mummy milk in the freezer, so that should see her through to her first birthday.  But to be honest, she drinks very, very little milk anyway.  Maybe 100-150ml a day.  She does eat yogurts, and cheese and milk in sauces, so I’m not worried about that.  In fact, I think I’m happier about it than her drinking vast amounts of cow’s milk.  I do wish she’d drink a little more water though, but everyone promises me that she will in time.

She’s not walking yet, I thought she might be, but she seems quite happy to crawl to wherever she wants to be, and then just stand up when she gets there.  She can stand on her own now though, without support.

Food wise, she’s got a very good appetite now she’s stopped the breast feeding.  She ate one and half Weetabix with apple for breakfast this morning, plus two prunes!  She’s quite happy with all kinds of textures, most things we don’t even mash any more.  She also loves her finger foods, although sandwiches are a very messy business.  She’s also very interested in spoons.  She now won’t eat unless I give her a spoon to play with.  And sometimes she even puts it in her mouth!!

It’s her birthday on Friday, so I promise a big update with lots of piccies.
