Sammy Likes to Outdo Patrick
Patrick was born at 36 1/2 weeks, and Sammy had a couple extra days in the womb, before he was born a day or two shy of 37 weeks. However, from the beginning, Sammy has been trying to outdo Patrick. He rolled over before Patrick. He began to smile and giggle before Patrick. And he has done it again: he has just begun eating solid foods, almost a full month before Patrick!
This evening, after Sammy finished his nighttime bottle, seemed like he was still hungry, so I made up a small bowl of rice cereal. I had tried to feed him cereal a few weeks before, and he spit it out, so I honestly didn’t think he would eat it. He ate the whole bowl! Patrick didn’t start eating solids until he was nearly 6 months, and Sammy is a few days past 5 months. It’s funny how kids develop at different paces!
Also, Sammy seems like he is teething… stay tuned, he might be getting a tooth soon. Patrick’s first tooth came at 8 months, which seems a little on the late side. We’ll see when Sammy gets his!
I like that Sam I am. I like him in a box. I like him with a fox. I like him in a plane. I like him in a train. I like him here or there. I like him everywhere. I like him with a mouse. I like him in a house. I do, I like that Sam-I-am.
