Help with Solid Food Schedule for 10 Month Old

My 10-month began eating solids when he was 6 months and ate really well - then a month or so ago, he basically refuses to eat them. He will eat in the mornings (eggs, fruit etc) but as the day goes on he won't eat them and only wants bottles of formula. Can anyone suggest anything/send an example of how much your baby eats and when (and the breakdown of solids/milk). I thought the milk would be tapering off now, but it doesn't seem to be. He doesn't have any teeth yet also. Thanks.

Not into Food

My 13 month son wants to throw food, he is suppose to gain weight(Doctors orders), it is frustrating, he thinks it is funny. I'm not laughing. Any ideas on techniques to stop this. He is also enemic. Any high iron pleasurable foods, I make him great dinners, filet mignon with sweet potatoes, broccoli, too good of food to end up on the floor.

HELP My Baby Is Becoming a Chipmunk!!

I am giving my baby peas and beans with meat. I was surprised she was eating without complains because she doesn't like veggies, but slowly her cheeks start growing! I have the feeling it was for the peas so I keep feeding her thinking eventually she will have to eat what she has, but her cheeks just got huge, so I decide to start all over again. She spit and we start but this time I only gave her peas, and she didn't refuse (first time ever!) but she just keep saving them on her cheeks, I try give her water so that they will "swim"...

Question for the Crafty Moms

I'm making some felt finger puppets for my son, and I have a couple of questions before I hit the craft store. First, I have patterns to trace on the felt. Will a sharpie do the trick? Or do I need some kind of special fabric pen? Also, some parts will be sewn, but other parts glued. What kind/brand of glue would work well for binding felt on felt? I want these to be pretty sturdy for my 2 year old! Thanks!

Looking for Fun Table Top Activities for 3 to 5 Year Olds

I am reaching the point of desperation. I am used to keeping very young children entertained. Most of the older kids I have that I watch are part time drop ins. I am not really set up for older kids I am geared toward younger kids. I have limited space, I have a crib and two collapseable pack n plays ( but I usually keep one pack n play up all the time, when it isn't being used for napping purposes it doubles as a quick catch all for a tote of toys to make more floor room, and is easier than taking it down and putting it back up all the...
