13 months week 2

Not much to talk about. He has been approved to start transition to 1 year old room starting next week. So that's pretty big. I guess his progress with food has been paying off. Which brings me to say that we have a new favorite snack. Veggie Straws. They're made out of mostly potato puree and then baked crispy. I like them, Xavier likes them, it's all good. When I have a bowl of them and am snacking on them he will come along and take some. Which is pretty big!

Biggest fights now are taking his iron supplement and brushing teeth and biting! Not biting while nursing. Just biting in general. I get that he's probably teething and he needs relief which is why I try to provide an acceptable alternative when he does it, but it still hurts.

I have said it before but I'll say it again. I'm really worried about his teeth. I try so hard. But his teeth are just getting worse and worse. I hope hope hope that when he is no longer on iron his teeth will go back to "normal" looking, but I'm terrified that it might not be until he gets his new adult teeth in. :(

Today is my last Saturday working (unless someone needs a trade). I'll still try to get a post up probably around Saturday anyway though.

Pictures!

 Xavier likes chewing on the bottom of cups. I used to think it was just the cool or condensation, but this cup was room temperature. Weird kid.

Veggie straws! (actually these ones aren't the STRAWS. They're a different brand and aren't in tube form. But this is how we discovered he likes the veggie straw type product.) He grabbed a handful and I thought it was so cute I had to snap some pictures.

Xavier trying chocolate pudding at the Chinese buffet. He liked it.

More veggie straws! These are the actual straw ones and he thought it was so fun to blow/suck through the hole. :)

Then "washed them down" with a drink. (not really. He just likes pretending/practicing with cups. This one was empty.)

This is the tiger toy he got from the Cinci Zoo. He was giving it kisses, and again, too cute.

I was trying to get a shot of his teeth. Still doesn't look as bad as it does in person. But maybe you can kind of see the discoloration.The bottom ones are way worse than the top. I try. I really try. :( :(
