First Solid meal

I started feeding him organic brown rice cereal on 15th October. For my first preparation, it wasn't too good. I added in hot water first before bmilk, then the solution turned out too watery and seedy. He drank it all down anyway. The second day I fed him, he seemed more pleased with a smoother and creamy texture. The cereals smelt good, even I thought it tasted good, no wonder boy boy likes him so. After so much readings on feeding solids, I thought it would be a difficult battle, but it all looked good thus far, as of today, his 4th meal, no allegic reaction and he poos fine, no constipation, hmm, all ready to start a new food, what should it be this time? Avocado? Book says they're good for brain development, or should I go veggies first? Else everything is sweet for him and he might reject blend veggies next time.

Think Nathan is starting to teeth. He seems more irritable too, last night, he cried so bad when granny was around, frightened her off. And when she left, he was fine ... hmm, this boy. I hope he teeths soon, so that he'll feel more comfortable.

Since I started him on solids, he's been sleeping well during the day too. Two good 1.2 hrs nap each in the day. Maybe its the air conditioning that works, but it also mean I couldn't use the pc while he's asleep, cos he would be sleeping in the room. Today, I placed him back on his bed in the other room without the air con, so that I can blog, else I would feel constipated, not being able to let my thoughts flow.
