EAT THIS!

Our little boy wants to eat EVERYTHING!  He doesn't know his boundaries....he doesn't understand that he can't eat pizza yet, or that a drink of milk may go down the "wrong pipe" and lead to a possible aspiration at noon on a Friday, scare the living daylight out of his parents and end up in the ER for 4 hours. 

And while we're on the subject, that did scare the crap out of us.  We're in a weird spot right now....Joel hasn't officially been cleared to eat normal foods....just "tasting"...but his appetite is big, and he's figuring it out, and we're not able to see a GI doc or their feeding team for another month.  It doesn't feel right to hold him back on foods until then, but we have seen what can happen when we try something new.  So, we won't be attempting to drink milk out of a cup for the time being.  Not yet.  But it will happen!  Soon!
