On the 4th of July, Finley reached a big milestone...Solid Foods! I remember thinking about this when she was a wee newborn and it seemed so far away, yet here we are/were in the blink of an eye.
We did the first feeding with rice cereal out on the deck so if worse came to worse we could hose her and ourselves and the table off. That wasn't needed thankfully!
Not a lot made it into her mouth and what did, didn't stay in there very long. Here it is collecting in the bib!
The spoon was delish.
Momentary success. I think after this smile she melted down and screamed until she got a bottle!
From there, we moved onto some sweet potatoes I had pureed. She ate them out of Pat's Peter Rabbit china set from when he was a baby. Pretty neat :)
This went much better!
So far Finley has eaten rice and oatmeal, sweet potatoes, zucchini, squash, carrots, peas, avocados, and bananas. The only failure thus far has been the multiple gag inducing avocados. She's a good eater and eagerly awaits the next bite most of the time.
