Chew it, chew it......

Jonathan is continuing to do great with feeding. He has mastered pudding texture loves Carmel Dulce DE leche pudding (my boy)! He is doing really well with graham cracker crumbs crushed in it and now we are doing cheerios! We have done noodles and he really likes it especially if it has cheese, he does get a bit nervous when its first introduced in his mouth but we sing..



chew it, chew it, chew it
chew it so you don't choke
chew it, chew it, chew it
chew it so it goes down your throat.




He loves the song and knows exactly what to do when its sung.I admit the exercise that we do in his mouth has really helped, no more gagging we have been able to get the spoon to the back of his mouth with no problems. The exercise is from Beckmans so how you do it is: put your first finger inside mouth, thumb on outside and do big circles while pulling out a little on cheek while you do it. Start out so your kiddo don't choke and within a week or two you will probably be able to get to the back molar area!

My parents took him to the state fair and he rode the carousal then he sat with my father and a baby kangaroo. He wasn't so sure about it and you can tell by the pic he might have not enjoyed sharing papa's lap!



This weekend we are taking Jonathan to cedar point an amusement park in Ohio and camping. The weather is starting to get cold starting this weekend so its almost time for summer to come to an end!
