5 months: first solid food...

some babies start to eat solid food at 4 months. alex started at 6 months. karol started with raisins just before his 5th month :))

it happened one time when alex was eating raisins. karol was playing on his tummy. i turned my back for a moment and then alex said, "mommy, karol is eating raisins!" lo and behold, i saw two very wet raisins on the mat. the ever lovable ate alex gave him of course... close call, whew!

wazzup
* very active. moves like a bug on it's back.
* reaches and grabs everything and anything, specially mommy's hair (ouch!)
* holds milk bottle on his own (with a little help :)
* sucks everything and anything, even mommy's pinky.
* more sociable than ever.
* loves to vocalize. high pitch. low pitch. choose your pick! purrs like a lion cub. gargles. makes "paulan" (razzing sound with saliva spray).


* idol si ate... laughs at alex and his eyes follow her wherever she goes.
* sometimes falls asleep by himself (even while on the play gym). but, most of the time sleeps only while comfort sucking.
* started sleeping earlier than 11pm. but, went back to waking up in the middle of the night. (so much for bragging about sleeping through the night.)
