1-1-10

So I was going to wait until today, Friday 1-1-10 to start Logan's 2nd Foods, but I couldn't wait, and gave him some "dessert" yesterday after dinner. Dutch Apple Dessert. He loved it.
Then I found out later that grandma gave him some fruit thingy thats a 2nd foods on accident yesterday while I was at work cause she didn't realize I was waiting until today. Oh well!!
He starts his full real day of 2nd foods today.

Today he had
Breakfast- Rice Cereal/Green Beans/Peaches (Daddy is silly and didn't understand he didn't have to give him veggies for breakfast lol. We have to give him a break, he hasn't ever fed babies.)
Lunch-Green Beans/Apple-Blueberry/Prunes.
Dinner is going to be Chicken-Chicken Gravy stuff/Dutch Apple Dessert

We have decided he's going to have rice cereal and fruit for breakfast (or, on lazy days, just the already prepared baby food and fruit mixed-like i bought a few of the like pear strawberry granola ones and stuff). For Lunch he is going to have a fruit and a veggie AND prunes. And for Dinner he will have one of the meats/meals and a dessert. We have no problem gaining weight or anything, so we're going to work on it and start with just doing his cereal only for breakfast. If he has a hard time transitioning and still seems very hungry on just baby food alone, then we will do cereal for breakfast and lunch maybe. We go to the Dr. on the 19th I think, so we will fool with his feeding schedule, then consult with the Dr. on any changes to make at our appointment.
I'm really excited for him to try everything. I know I already said that, but I want him to be an awesome eater. I'm gung-ho on shopping for my baby food at more than one store in order to try and find all the flavors for the brands and all.
Giant Eagle had a sale, so I went yesterday. I was able to find a lot of the flavors I was looking for in the Nature's Goodness Brand. The sale was the 4 ounce jars, 10/$4. So I was buying a couple of a ton of different flavors. I am not sure if they don't make it in the 4 ounce jars, but I could only find the single meats, the chicken, beef, and turkey in the 2.5 ounce jars. So I don't know if they were out/don't carry the meats in the 4oz. jars, or does Nature's Goodness not make the meats in the 4 oz?
Well, anyway, I got 2 of the chicken in gravy, 2 of the beef in gravy, and 2 of the turkey in gravy of the 2.5 ounce jars. Those should each last him 4 days. I'm only giving him the meats for dinner, and that's like 1/2 a jar each night. So yeah. But after we get the single meats out of the way, I will probably not buy them anymore once we see that he has no allergy problems. I will just buy the meat mixed ones and dinners.
So I got those, then also got Chicken & Apples, Ham & Apples, Broccoli & Chicken, Chicken Noodle, Green Beans & Turkey, Mac n Cheese, Veg Beef Dumpling, Veg Chicken for his dinners/meats.
Then I got Tutti Frutti, Dutch Apple Dessert, for his desserts but that's about all Nature's Goodness had for desserts!! So I also got a few Gerber desserts, Hawaiian Delight, Peach Cobbler, and Vanilla Custard with Bananas. Which I didn't mind doing, but I was hoping to get everything on sale, but GE didn't seem to have/carry some of the NG flavors I was looking for like, Banana Pudding, Vanilla Custard, Fruit Dessert.
Then I got a lot of prunes too. Since the cereal seems to bind Logan up a little we are going to do a little bit of prunes with lunch everyday. He loves them so it's cool.
So yeah.
I already had several of just the regular single fruits and single veggies so I didn't have to buy any just yet.

ANDDDDDDDDDDD
another exciting announcement. He's been trying so darn hard for weeks, but today, 1-1-10 at 1:01pm, Logan rolled over all on his own! So proud of him. He's been sitting up pretty well for weeks now, but just hadn't quite gotten then hang of the rolling. So now we're on a roll!!

And tonight is mommy/daddy date night.
So I have to go get ready.
We are doing Olive Garden and a movie. It's been a while. A long while. So that should be nice.

Happy New Year!!
