Harper's First Solids!!

We waited until ALMOST six months, but just couldn't wait any longer.

Harper had been following my food with her eyes for a while, but I wanted to wait at least until Daddy came home.

So, today was the day!!

We started with Avocado. I'll be making her baby food, so this is the start of an exciting new adventure for me as well.

The good thing about Avocado is that you don't have to cook it or put it in the food processor. You just mash it up! So, like bananas, it makes a great first baby food!

It certainly doesn't LOOK pretty though.




Really, Mom???




She did REALLY well for a first feeding! It seemed like most of the food actually ended up in her tummy and, aside from a few sour faces, she seemed to like it!!











We all got to feed her (even Colin!) and I was so happy that we waited for Daddy! Although, when it was Daddy's turn to feed her, it seemed like all she wanted to do was stare into her Daddy's eyes. Sigh... these girls and their dads.







In all, it was pretty successful!!

Next up, bananas!
