Christina came down from the cabin today and hung out with us at the Orchard. So we roped her into feeding Gus who has been slowing down in his interest in eating in the last few days. Getting bored of sweet potato? Not sure.

But Christina tried something new that he loved -a much more tactile approach, letting him touch the bowl and food as he eats. Which is a half step towards baby-led weaning, a way I just read about on a blog a read call Comfortable Disorientation. Thought we’d try it and see what happens.

So far, Gus is enthusiastic.
