Over the past week, Finlay has been experimenting with his first solids. We started him on some rice cereal mixed with milk and he was a bit hesitate at first. He knew exactly what to do with the spoon, and how to swallow the very liquid-y stuff, but he made a screwed up face as if to say, "What are they feeding me?" But, by the end of the first meal, he was really interested in every spoonful and wanted more when the tablespoon of cereal was all gone. The cereal was going so well that we decided to try sweet potatoes tonight! This time, he knew the drill but was expecting rice cereal for sure... Then the bright orange puree hit his lips and he opened his eyes wide and smiled with delight! I knew immediately that we had a winner. The pictures say it all!
"What is this glorious stuff in my mouth!"
"More please!"
"I love my life."
Mum: "This is a little more challenging than the feeding I'm used to... but so worth it!"
Finlay: "This is a little more challenging than the feeding I'm used to... but so worth it!"
"Num, num, num, num, num."
More to follow on the visit from Auntie Michelle and our first Mother's Day!
