Preston has started eating real food! Well, I guess baby food isn't real food, but it is more than breast milk. His pediatrician said that we could start him at five months, so on his birthday, we whipped up a special batch of rice cereal and forged ahead. Before this, he had tried the juice from a fresh plum and sweet potato. He loved the juice and the sweet potato was just ok. The rice cereal was not so good. As of now, he has tried peas, rice cereal, fresh honeydew, and fresh cantaloupe. He loves sucking on fresh fruit. I think the juice, texture, and temperature all feel good on his gums...He is not eating it though, just sucking. I didn't want to start him until 6 months, so we are taking it really, really slow. We just went to Indian food for lunch and I CANNOT wait for him to be older and trying all different foods and flavors.
Yummy Peas!
He is really stubborn with the spoon...CONTROL FREAK
Not so messy....
Messy!
