First Solids!

Today was a big day for us!  It started this morning when we decided to give Janie her first taste of food.  So I took her to the Farmers’ Market and we picked out two organic sweet potatoes.  When I handed her one, she looked a little skeptical.

Here she is with her brand-new bib on and seated in her feeder seat attached to one of our dining chairs.  She has no idea what’s about to happen.

Here’s a video of her first bites.  Yai and Ta were on FaceTime at the moment so you can hear their comments along the way.  Click here if you can’t see the video above.

I think she liked it but she seemed more confused than anything else.  She ended up eating about a tablespoon of my homemade pureed sweet potato today.

Here she is at the end of the meal with sweet potato on her face, hands, and even a little in her hair – the picture of a successful first meal!  Clean up was pretty easy today but I am NOT looking forward to her poops tomorrow.
