Kenji boy started teething at the last week of his 5th month. Now, his top and bottom incisors has fully developed and he has 4 little teeth on the upper jaw and another 4 on the lower jaw. He loves foods with textures so that he can bite, chew, gnaw or nibble on them.
Last weekend, when I came out from the kitchen with my freshly peeled pear, Kenji boy crawled towards me and gave me his usual innocent look. Later he started to use his chubby finger to poke at my pear, begging me for his share. It was so cute, and papa have to give in and let him to have his bite on the pear.
Oh so nice!
He can’t really bite the pear. He only able to gnaw on it, while licking off the sweet juice from the pear. I let him to have the pear for a while until mummy said it’s time to clean up 🙂 I’m going to introduce more fruits to him soon!
Yummy!
yeah.. kenji boy can start more exploring on his solid journey… I normally cut the fruits into stripe and let my girl hold and suck the juices since she can’t chew yet.. but of course, the mess is horrible to handle..hehe..
100% agreed on the horrible mess. I got whack by wifey for making that mess on his face and body. haha
Kenji is cute!! : )
Thanks 🙂
Kenji..what a nice name… yes, the fruit must be very sweet…
Thanks. Indeed it was sweet. I love the pears too 🙂
Teething time….means drooling time too! You can substitute pears with different fruits like oranges or papayas. I think it is a good way to introduce fruits to babies.
oh yeah, He drools a lot. I have to tuck in handkerchief or sometimes a napkin on his shirt to prevent his saliva from wetting it. I do give him papayas, actually we are trying all sorts of fruits weekly to simulate his taste bud.
Cute Kenji. So mommy can shredded the fruits and introduce him more variety of fruits and vege.
Thanks. We are giving him fruits with a softer texture first. Will try fruits with harder texture next round 🙂
good to give him fruits. But careful with pear as its very “leong”
Yea, my mum has warned me too. I do not want him to cough away after having that, but I can’t resist to give him a try 🙂
Mmm….yum yum. Fruits is good. Glad that Kenji boy is enjoying it.
The good thing about my boy is he really enjoy foods just like his papa. haha 🙂
