Since Zoe has been fascinated by anything we eat and finally started trying to grab it out of our hands, we decided to finally give her a shot at solids.
Friday evening I mixed up some organic rice cereal with breastmilk and tried feeding her with a spoon. She did pretty well at not choking but, as expected, she wore more of it than she ate.
Eventually, she wrestled the spoon from me because, really, it was more interesting than the cereal. I perservered and got another spoon. I also learned why so many babies get nightly baths, as she was totally sticky when we were finished.
Saturday I gave her a chunk of banana to play with while we ate on the back patio and Sunday she got a little bit of avocado. Boy, this whole food thing is messy!
