More food fun.

Jac's interest in food has really grown lately. He watches intently as Taj and I eat our meals, and he often reaches out to grab the food in our hands, pulling it to his mouth.

While he's still not ready to actually eat most foods, we've been letting him participate in our meals. At Playa Azul, he spent a few minutes grabbing tortilla chips and pressing them against his tongue. At Panera, he guided my hand holdig a roast beef sandwich and gave that a taste. It's interesting to watch him react to new food flavors and textures.

At home, we have started to give him some rice cereal to eat, some peeled apples to taste, and some apple sauce to play with (and to eat). Yup, we're entering that messy stage!




He's also been sipping from my cups of water and juices. He clearly enjoys drinking water out of our cups. He seems a bit unsure about orange juice, though! We just started trying sippee cups, but haven't had any success with that yet.



Of course, I'm gunning for him to get to curry rice, soon! :)
