Soggy Hannah

Hannah ate loads today! She had a huge bowl of cheerios for breakfast, and only left about half a dozen or so. She also drank a fair amount of water from her sippy cup. Since the weather warmed up a couple of days ago she's drinking a lot more water than normal. I thought it was partly related to her teething (still no further on with that project by the way) but that's eased off and she's carrying on.

We ate lunch out on the patio, and Hannah had three slices of quiche, half a dozen cherry tomatoes, a cream cheese sandwich (one slice of bread) and three slices of melon. Again she drank quite a bit of water too.

Hannah wasn't very interested in her tea (served on the patio again). I offered her two rice cakes with hummus, some potato salad, an organix date and banana chewy fruit thing, and some banana milkshake. I made the milkshake with a banana, a fromage frais, and some full fat milk to thin it out a bit. I gave it to her in an open cup, but she wasn't all that interested. We also tried it with a straw, but mostly she wanted to take that out and chew it. In fact she spent far more time munching on the straw than she did with the entire rest of the meal!

After tea once I'd wiped up Hannah and the high chair, I poured some water into the tray and let her play with that. It took mere milliseconds for her to realise that if she slapped her hands down into it I'd get soaked...
