Look Mom- I'm Eating Solids!

On New Years Eve Annabelle started solid foods. She was definitely ready even though she was just shy of reaching the half year mark. When we caught her reaching for our food during dinner, that was our queue. Let's take advantage of the curiosity and get her started with some cereal.

The first food experience was fun. We got her in her high chair, put the bib on and let her check out the new grub. As we let her have the first spoonful you could tell that she went through a range of emotions. First, confusion about all the fuss, then excitement as we let her smell and touch it for the first time, then skepticism as she tasted the rice for the first time. She wasn't big on the taste.

Annabelle only took about two spoonfuls in before the whole ordeal was over but I think she did well for her first meal.
