Mom Monday: Adventures in Mealtime

by on ‎08-18-2013 07:19 PM

One of the joys of parenthood is watching your little one reach each milestone of their development.  So far we’ve had a lot of fun watching Jericho learn how to smile, blow bubbles, babble, sit up and roll over.  The milestone we’ve been looking forward to the most though is Jericho’s first foods!  After six months of exclusively nursing little Coco her pediatrician gave us the green light to introduce the baby to fruits, vegetables and rice cereal. 


 


It was so exciting to present Coco with her first spoonful of rice cereal.  As soon as it touched her lips her face frowned up with an expression that read, “This tastes weird, and I don’t know if I like it!”  It’s been trial and error with her.  Bananas make her gag but she loves peaches, pears and apples and so far carrots and sweet potatoes are winners.   She also LOVES to drink water which I understand to be quite unusual. 


 


Mealtime is always an adventure with her and quite messy!
