Water

I am so happy.
Kevin stopped breast feeding last week. By himself. He simply does not want breast milk anymore (even in bottle).
Well, he is almost 1 year old now (2 weeks), and he is eating those baby foods. My wife also is not producing much milk, which might be the reason (he is making much more effort to get just a little bit of milk).
I personally think he is not enjoying it anymore… He got (so far) 2 teeth out. And sometimes he bites her. She screams, he gets spooked, he cries, and she gets angry at him.
Judging by the 2 times I saw that happening, I could not blame him (or her).

However, this posted a problem for us. He was not drinking any liquids. He likes to play with his water cup. But not to drink it.
We tried everything, but did not help.
However, yesterday I put water in a bottle for him (even though the wife protested). All of a sudden, he started playing with it, and then he drank out of it. Played a bit more, drank a little more. And so on until the bottle was empty.
We were getting worried he would dehydrate. Now all’s good :)
