Solid Foods

We had been wanting to hold off until 5.5 months to start solid foods but Evan convinced us he was ready now. He has perfect head control, can sit up unsupported, and is very interested in our food. All criteria are met so we began. We gave him rice cereal a couple of times last week and he loved it. Tonight he tried peas. Owen fed him!  (unfortunately we don't have pictures b/c it took all four of us to have owen safely feed him) He gobbled it right up. Tomorrow we are going to stock up on some veggies and freeze enough for the next few weeks.  We are in no hurry since it's supposed to be more about practice until he's closer to a year old, that's when it will become more of a nutritional need.
