I have been trying to get Christian used to the texture of more solid foods. I have only done this with those little rice puffs and those Mums rice biscuits. Every time the reaction is always the same. He gags the moment he realizes it is on his tongue. It is pretty cute. However, today we made the most progress so far. I gave him a biscuit and he was rather interested in it. He crunched it against his teeth and actually chomped it! This, of course, was followed by the gag reflex but he quickly realized all was OK and actually ate it. Who knows what will happen tomorrow. :)Thursday, October 2, 2008
