Yum Yums

Chesney started eating solid foods about 10 days ago (at 6 months 3 days old). She has gotten the hang of it now and can polish off a meal in no time. So far she has tried sweet potatoes, avocado, carrots, peas, and pears (in that order). She loved everything (except avocado) but for some reason is obsessed with peas. She now opens her mouth like a birdie when she spots food. She even tried sucking on a couple slices of apple but sort of acted possessed. She made crazy noises and kept grabbing for the apple.




First bite of sweet potatoes.



































We have also started to give her a cup with water or milk in it, and she is catching on pretty quickly on how to drink out of a cup. Now keep in mind that we haven't let her run the spoon or cup...so meals have been fairly clean.















We are having so much fun watching her face as she tries new foods and watching her enjoy pure mush! Squash, green beans, banana, and applesauce are next on the list of foods to try.
