I titled this post, "Blow" and then realized there are WAY too many ways that word is used. Absolutely impossible to tell from the title, what the content of this post will be. (Just to name a few.... That blows! I blew it! Then he huffed and puffed and blew the house down! etc.) It's safe to say, we will be G rated today.
We're talking about food that is too hot. And how you blow on it to cool it down.
When Jax's food is too hot (anything warmer than lukewarm), he will drop it or spit it out of his mouth.
(I digress to mention that he doesn't actually SPIT anything out. Instead, he sticks his tongue straight out of his mouth as far as he can, and lets the food just roll off and out. It might be the cutest thing since whatever the last cutest was that I mentioned about him.)
(I will try not to add any more parenthetical comments to this post, but it might be impossible.)
I've learned to blow on his food to cool it down before setting it on his tray (to feed himself) (see? impossible) or popping it in his mouth.
He is really heading into mimic territory to learn to shape sounds and words. So of course, he's starting puffing and blowing as soon as we begin feeding him. He doesn't blow on the food, he just puffs little bursts of air in anticipation of being fed. Hysterical. Also the cutest thing ever. (As usual.)
