Things have been getting crazy in the kitchen lately! We had our first BLW (baby led weening) lunch in a restaurant and oh boy did it get messy! Jakson ate lamb kofta (!!!) and chicken - his first ever meats! He also enjoyed a number of salads that included things like broccoli, green beans, aubergine, potato and the list goes on. What was fun is that since we were in a restaurant it wasn't just the plain steamed variety that he typically gets at home. The salads had chillis, garlic, yogurt and loads of spices and I think Jakson really enjoyed all the flavour! He gobbled it all up!
Now I think it's fair to assume the restaurant wasn't as pleased with us as we were with ourselves, but who cares! It was a riot! Here's a pic of Jakson with his birthday buddy, Nell (born 3 minutes apart in the same hospital!!) enjoying their lunch.

| Lamb kofta, eh? Let's see about this... |
After the restaurant experience I think i need to get a bit more adventurous in the kitchen so Jakson isn't bored with his food. So today we had tuna + pasta salad for lunch. Another big hit! Jakson loved it! Although he loves anything that involves cucumbers or tomatoes!

| Mmmmm....cucumber!!! |

Jakson is also learning to take sips from his cup (pictured above) and is doing quite well! He can pick it up by the handles and put it in his mouth. I'm just not sure he knows what to do after that (he needs to suck to get anything). Oh well, the rubber spout makes for a good chew toy which is perfect as we've actually got a tooth coming through! It's only just broken ground so v. hard to see BUT if you stink a finger in his mouth he will certainly gnaw on you with it. And it's a sharpie! Hurts like hell when he properly bites down!! Little stinker ;)
