Baby at 6th month

Baby is starting to flip on her side, but it's an ardous task for her it seems. We have to help her flip.

Recently, she's starting to reject the bland brown rice cereal. So today, I mixed it with her milk and sure enough, she liked the taste of it. However, mixing it with milk makes the cereal lumpy. Cooking it over fire doesn't solve the problem either.

She seems to get hungry at closer intervals now. I think that's a cue for me to give her more feeds on her cereal and start some fruit purees.

So next on the list is the book 'First Foods'. I just saw it at Popular today and it seems a good book. It has recipes on simple food preparations like fruit and vegetable purees, and the book can last till the baby reaches 24 months.

A parenting website 'Baby Weekly' states that Baby would be a social butterfly at this stage. She would smile and make friends with whoever she meets. And how true is that! Even in the lifts, in the queue at the bank, in the restaurant, in the eatery, outside the changing room, at the traffic lights, people look at her and make comments of all sorts ie. 'She looks exactly like her father', 'She's adorable', 'She's super cute', 'She's very fair' and smile at her, and she smiles back.
