Day 30: What is this "chewing"?


So last night I attempted to chew a lump in my mashed potatoes. I positioned the lump between my teeth and tried to close my teeth together aaand nothing happened! My teeth hit the lump and stopped. I really tried to close my teeth together and I felt the masseters (muscles) cramping, but the lump remained. I was defeated by a mashed potato lump!

Never fear, you can't keep me down for long! So today I made yet another purchase from the baby aisle... Puffs!


Designed for "crawlers" (that's right I'm not even at "walking" level yet!).

So how did it go?  Well I needed a second for the puff to soften, and it did require a surprising amount of effort and concentration, but I was able to bite through a snack puff for a 7 month old! Woo!  After about 4 puffs I was tired, but it was still one more (baby!) step forward!
