Another milestone checked off the list!

Yesterday Kendell tried her first taste of "baby food". She did quite well. She is 5 1/2 months so I figured I had to give in and try her out on it. Like the others before her more food was spit out than taken in but that is ok! I reminded myself today that this might be one of the first things that I am teaching her. Most of the things she knows how to do so far are instinctual and I guess eating is instinctual too but there is some teaching involved. If anyone is interested I gave her avacados and I am using the methods in the "super baby food" book by Ruth Yaron. Very interesting stuff for babies and kids who are already eating. And I might add...there is a fantastic "make it at home" section for homemade baby products and household products. Great for someone on a budget!
