Getting started early

Photobucket - Video and Image HostingThey say addictions run in your genes - well, apparently David has one from Dad. Here's a shot of him from Christmas, reaching for his first cup of joe. You wouldn't believe the effects a full cup of coffee can have on a 4 month old baby; he started out by bouncing up and down in his jumperoo for 50 minutes straight while loudly babbling and flailing his arms, then peed through three diapers, got a nasty case of the coffee trots, crashed, and fell asleep for the next day. It was awesome.

Ease it into the poor little guy.
Maybe 90% breast milk to 10% coffee.

We started giving Brady coffee at 6 months.....the doctor said his stomach would be better able to handle it by then. Now, when we go to Starbucks, he always orders a venti mocha latte double-shot expresso caramel machiato cappacino sans mocha, expresso, machiato, and cappacino (which if you are paying attention leaves him with latte.) :)
