I'm learning when it comes to babies if at first you don't succeed try, try, again. It takes Kolton roughly 3 times to get used to a new activity. Take the Baby Bjorn for example. This week I put him forward facing for the first time. He cried for a little while, settled down a bit, then got fussy again. The second walk went a little better but we still didn't make it out very long before we had to come back. Today, he chilled for the entire circuit I usually take Sophie on. Not a peep from him. Even when our neighbor greeted us. This week he has also been experiencing the stranger danger feeling. Tonight I tried feeding him rice cereal for the first time in 2 months. I experimented with it before we had him sleeping through the night. He actually did much better then than he did tonight. He ended up sucking on his fingers as a way to remedy the confusion over swallowing without a nipple in his mouth. But I have high hopes that 3 days from now he'll get it figured out.
