tremendous progress...wow!

I have made huge, tremendous, incredible, amazing, out of this world progress with eating orally recently! (Can you tell we are just a wee bit excited???)

I am now up to TWELVE ounces of baby food in a day! WOW! Every few days Mom tries to break our record by just a few more bites. We are so happy.

On the way home from Children's the other day, we stopped at Wendy's to eat together. Yep, together. While she enjoyed her yummy nuggets and fries, I ate three ounces of baby food. It was pretty fun! Mom said she wanted to run around and tell everyone, "You have no idea how exciting this moment is. We are eating together. My son is EATING!!!"

We have a long way to go because liquids and solids are going to present some serious problems...but hey we are absolutely delighted with where we are right now. We'll get to the next level someday.

And yesterday when my stomach bug came back (again!), I still managed to enjoy pureed bananas in addition to my Pedialyte. So cool!

Keep it coming Mom, keep it coming. :)

YIPEEEEE!!! Max, you are such an amazing boy. We can't wait to see what the New Year brings for you.

Get better soon, buddy. As soon as you, Dylan, and Jonah are healthy, we'll get together and maybe you two can have lunch!

OK you showoff! That is so cool, the payoff for him eating will be so huge in the future! Brady never ate that much babyfood... ever! Although he still eats the Rice cereal with bananas and apples (but we don't tell his friends!)
