So Marisa officially decided she can walk today! For about 1.5 weeks now

she’s been doing where she will take 3-4 wobbly steps to me or DH (and

she’s been walking great with only a finger for help for a while now). But this

morning we were at our play class at the temple and she walked halfway

across the room a few times and then followed another toddler out of the

room and walked down the hall, turned the corner and into another room!

So crazy and cute. So that is really good – we are battling worsening eating

issues, but…

Hooray for Marisa! It’s so cute (and surprising) when they suddenly just start doing something out of the blue like that. I’m anxiously awaiting the moment Myles decides he can walk, too.

I’m sorry to hear she is having worsening eating issues. Is she just not eating any table food? Myles is making slow progress, but still he’s way behind. Part of me says I should stop feeding him purees, or at least cut way down on them, and that maybe he will be hungrier and be more willing to try things, but the other part of me says pureed fruits and veggies are better than no fruits and veggies.

What are feeding Marisa these days?

Hurray for Marisa! It’s SO cute when they learn to walk. Better finish your babyproofing now!

I don’t have much to say about the eating issues except that I hate feeding problems! (and reflux!). What kinds of issues is she having? Hailey barely eats more than a couple of bites for dinner, no breakfast, if we’re lucky a few bites for lunch, a few sips of soy milk during the day, and 2 sleep fed bottles (8oz in total)…

On a happy note again… yipee for the walking! Soon she’ll be running to chase the other kids! That’s when it gets really fun.

It was so crazy – she literally took off – one of the nannies said to me “I

didn’t know she could walk” and all I could do was laugh and say that I didn’t

know either!

Christine and Lori – she has been boycotting even grilled cheese, chicken

nugget and french toast lately. Still eating buttered English muffins (in small

amounts) and some (very limited) purees, not much else besides freeze

dried fruit and veggie booty. But she did just get another eye tooth and the

bottoms are right there and molars close too. I’m hoping to hear from Thais

soon about the OT she had recommended for dealing with feeding/texture

issues.

Thanks Thais – I’ll go check that out now. We babyproofed some, but not a

lot – we’ll see what more we have to do I guess… How long are you in Spain

for?

She may be tired of the same old thing, but not willing to try new things. It’s frustrating, I know. Myles spits everything out except whole grain crackers, puffs, rice cakes, and cheerios. He can’t live on that. He is eating plenty of purees, though. Maybe her teeth are really bothering her and that’s part of the problem.

I hope it gets better soon and if not that the therapist Thais recommends can help her. If you see her please post suggestions! Thanks!

I think you hit the nail right on the head, Christine. She’s definitely sick of

the same stuff and her teeth are definitely a big factor. Problem is she’s

always had these issues – so we should probably start to address them. I’ll

definitely post if/when we see the therapist. For now, at least she just had a

jar of carrots/peas (with distraction from a book) and veggie booty…

That’s Awesome, Karen! It’s always exciting when they reach new milestones.

Sorry to hear about the feeding issues… Good luck with that.
