Today, Dimitri was given his first souvlaki from his pappou. Overall, Dimitri is an exceptionally wonderful eater. He will generally eat anything in front of him with no real complaints. George and I are in awe that he’s not a chunky baby, but realized that he DOESN’T STOP MOVING. And when I say that, I mean, he NEVER stops moving in the day! He can’t seem to sit still. We’ve seen some other babies his age that are happily looking at a toy, rattle or the ceiling with no real will to move. That’s most definitely not Dimitri. He is crawling all over the place, he pushes up on his feet, he rolls around, he sits up only to decide he wants to lie back, but wait, isn’t it best to crawl? We are fascinated by the amount of energy he expends every day. He is no longer really interested in being held. He mainly likes to be on the ground with a bunch of bowls and spoons.
All this to say, that while Dimitri will eat anything, he most certainly expresses more favorable behaviour when given something very tasty. Here’s a pic with his pappou, having his first souvlaki!
