What and how often are you feeding your 6-7 month old?

I have an almost 3.5 year old and I can't seem to remember when I did what with her...like adding lunch, how many bottles she got through the day and how much to feed at meals.  Right now Owen gets 2 ounces of formula with oatmeal and 1/2 a tub of first foods for breakfast then a bottle right after that for breakfast around 7ish.  I give him another bottle at 11, a bottle at 2 then rice cereal and 1/2 tub of first foods for dinner at 5ish then a bed time bottle at 6:00.  He's still getting up once a night for a bottle but I'm hoping to put an end to that soon.  What are you doing?

Hadley gets a bottle upon waking, then 3 ounces of fruit about an hour after. In the evening she gets 3 ounces of veggies after an hour of having a bottle. She takes 4 bottles a day and sleeps 12 hours.

Our son only gets solids every other afternoon.  He gets really constipated so we're trying to ease in solids.  Besides that, he gets 6-7oz of formula ever 2-3 hours... except at night he goes from 7:30-5:3PM before he has a bottle.

The twins get 4 sometimes 5 bottles/day. We offer 8oz and they usually take between 6-8oz. They eat 2 solid meals/day. At breakfast they split 2-3tbsp cereal mixed with formula and 2tbsp fruit puree. At dinner they split 2-4tbsp cereal mixed with formua and 2tbsp of veggie. They just started STTN at 5.5 months. They sleep 10-12 hours and wake 1-2x/night for soother.

J eats like every 2 hours in the morning, then it stretches out a little longer in the afternoon. 

This is a rough schedule. It changes everyday and this is dictated by him. I don't force any of these meals or bottles on him and if he skips one, it's no big deal.

5;30 morning bottle

8 breakfast (7oz)

9;30 bottle

11;30 lunch (7oz)

2 bottle

4 bottle

6;30 dinner (7oz)

8 bedtime bottle
