Food Glorious Food!

Elliot is finally starting eat. This has been such a struggle and a major stress in my life. When a CF baby or child won't eat it usually means that they are sick or getting sick. Ever since he has been diagnosed with CF it has been torture trying to feed him. It literally would bring me to tears. I was so worried and frustrated. He needs far more calories than an average baby and I couldn't even get him to eat like a normal one. But this week has been a huge breakthrough. He has started to love to eat. He will take his bottles no problem and is totally loving solids. Most of you might know that he gets the majority of his medication via applesauce, so he kinda has a sweet tooth(gum), so I have to mix everything with it. Lately I have been giving him avocado, hummus, and applesauce all mixed together and he loves it. I personally love it because he is getting everything that he needs, all the fats, protein, and calories that he needs. This is what I call super food, and don't worry, I have tried it and it isn't so bad tasting. So hooray for Elliot!
p.s. He has also figured out how to craw. It is so nice to see him growing up, and doing everything so on schedule developmentally. We got a bit of a late start, but he has seems to catch up just fine. Now if we could do something about his size!
