Jake gained 13 ounces in 16 days.

Not sure if that's good, but it sounds good to us. His eating has been outstanding lately, and his speed is slowly increasing. Worst meal is breakfast, but he still eats way way more than he did in the summer.

Drinking is still a challenge. It takes two of us to encourage him to drink his sippy cup. We have to put it in his mouth for him. If we give him the cup he throws it across the room. Grrr. It's frustrating.

Just the last couple nights he's been taking his sippy cup from the fridge and walking around with it, occasionally drinking. I've noticed the kids at daycare do that. This is a good sign.

Now that he's mostly off formula, we've started giving him Flintstone vitamins. They're the same from when I was a kid! The taste and smell of the vitamins brings one of those flash-back memories from when you young. I used to like the car vitamin best. I'd bite off the heads of the characters.

Jake isn't sure what to think of the vitamins. He doesn't like biting them yet because they're too hard and he's used to softer food.
