Introducing solids

Who would have thought the day would arrive, that I would be spoon feeding my daughter. When I officially heard her GULP I knew she wasnt just pushing it back out with her tongue. She was actually eating. Way to go Leigh-Leigh! You catch on too quick.

From the moment you set your eyes on the baby food jar [im using organic baby food, this was pears], you start grabbing with your hands. I know you're ready for another spoonful because you grab for the spoon. I love to hear your gulps because since you're still learning to swallow, they sounds over-exaggerated! Its the cutest thing. Keep at it, my love. This week we had to keep you on just the pears to see if you would develop an allergic reaction, but all has been well thus far....next week we can introduce a new flavor- Carrots. I plan on rotating out fruits and veggies so you develop a liking to BOTH. Your mommy loooooves ALL fruits and veggies so I know you will too. Bon Appetit!
