I have a friend who, with her first kid, had her feeding herself from the start. They would put her down on a tarp and give her a spear of avocado or cooked sweet potato or whatever and let her go for it! Needless to say, the second kid did not get that...

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
We're going to try a combination of feeding her and child led weaning where she feeds herself. We're just going to take it slow and see how it goes.
Just like we all are different as adults, the babies are all different when it comes to what works with eating. #1 couldn't have cared less about solid food and #2 was all about it.
Now that I think about it #1 still has little interest in food and #2 is still all about it! That may explain why the younger brother has a 100 pound weight advantage over his older brother. (One overweight the other underweight, both healthy)
I'm fairly confident that ltc is going to love food, but she could surprise me.
Oy, this day. It would be super awesome if people could give me more than an hour's notice that they were a) scheduling and/or b) cancelling things that take me more than an hour to prepare for. This must be Thursday. I never could get the hang of Thursdays.
I am finally going to write the thing I was going to write at the end of the work day, before I got caught up in several important and interesting conversations. Here's hoping.
2019 is the 100th anniversary of my one grandmother's birth as well.
2019 will also be the 100th anniversary of one of my grandmother's births, also. And she was my age now when I was born. Time sure is crazy!
I took two naps today and didn't lift ltc at all, and I no longer want to cut my leg off but it still hurts.
And she was my age now when I was born. Time sure is crazy!
Truth.
So I spent a good hour on my thing, and made a ton of progress! I think now I'm OK to take another run at it in the morning.
