Yesterday, Jared was introduced to his 1st solid meal as he will turn 6 months next week. I started him off with the Heinz rice cereal to avoid any allergies to other types of grains. I mixed the cereal with my EBM. Initially I expected this session to be a messy one but to my surprise, Jared ate really well for a first timer. He seemed to know how to open his mouth when I put the spoon near to it. I felt the mixture was a little too thick, so today I made the mixture more runny.
It was also the first time for him to drink from the sippy cup but he was already holding the cup like a pro :)
Bought the Healthy Times organic mixed grain cereal too, but will use it later to avoid any allergies at this early stage
It was a long break during the Raya holidays. Trying to avoid overly crowded places due to the H1N1 outbreak, we brought the kids to Youth Park together with my parents.
Emily's kindy had a mooncake festival celebration this morning. Parents were requested to prepare some food for the party. As my schedule was tight, I decided to make some jellies with "gula melaka" and coconut milk flavor.
This evening, when we picked her up from kindy, she told me that my jellies are the best according to her friends. Hmmm.. Wonder how true is that, regardless, I am all flattered :)
