Solid Foods
Since her four month check-up, Scarlet has been trying solids. We started her with cereal. Of course James had to go get not only Organic, but whole grain. I’m actually glad she’s getting good stuff. She did not seem like a fan, though it might have been just getting used to eating that was difficult for her. One day I tasted the cereal, and I can’t say I blame her for not liking it. Tastes like some kind of gloppy tasteless paste.
We then moved to applesauce. She didn’t seem to like this either as seen here…
but she gradually seemed to warm up to it and lately she’s been opening her mouth and leaning in for more bites. She’s even taken to grabbing the spoon.
Today we tried bananas and for the first time, she seemed truly happy to be eating food.
Though that changed after a few minutes….
This picture cracks me up….Looks like she’s holding the camera out to take a picture of herself.
My plan is to get a book on making your own baby food and whip some up to freeze and have on hand.
