I was trying to wait until after his 4 month well-baby visit this Friday, but I couldn’t resist.

Noah has been absolutely captivated by Mommy drinking from a glass for several weeks. Today, while I was drinking my usual large glass of watery apple juice, he reached for it and I gave in. After the first thrilling sip, Noah was hooked. This watery apple juice stuff is amazing!

We recently bought a set of 2 oz glasses from Ikea, since the montessori school recommended small glasses, even for infants. We poured roughly an ounce of my juice into his cup, and he lapped at it until it was gone — equal parts into and onto him. And then he licked and sucked on the glass, in case there was more.

When none appeared, there was a brief period of being upset about it, until we whisked him upstairs to put on a dry onesie. And now, he’s contentedly playing with his toes and farting. And watching Mommy.

He’s equally facinated by my morning cup of coffee, but I promise not to give in on that. Noah, you are WAY too young for coffee.

But I do think that solid foods are going to be entering Noah’s life next weekend.
