New Experiences

We decided to try Felix on solids this week as he seems to be really hungry. He watches everyone eating and he has been feeding more regularly, 2-3 hourly during the night. We started him on baby rice yesterday and again today. He pushes the food around in his mouth interested in the new experience, but is not quite sure what to do with it next. We will try stewed apple tomorrow and see what he thinks of that.

Felix has had a good week, we went to Little Dynamos on Monday where he tried the ball pit for the first time, where he was delighted with all the different colours. We've had a few visitors this week too, so he's had lots of cuddles. We had Uncle John & Aunty Pam around for a BBQ and their friends Pauline and Doug, they were all great cuddlers. Yesterday while I went for a run (well jog/fast walk) which I've been doing most days he had cuddles with our neighbour Scottie, see below the cutest photo of Felix and Scottie.

Another new experience Felix has had this week is the introduction to guns. Jarvis didn't know what guns were until we visited his big cousins Kyle & Connor in Christchurch, where he discovered them about 2 1/2 yrs old. Felix has been introduced to them at 17 weeks old, but he was more interested in chewing on them than shooting.
