Food, food.........and more food!


A couple weeks ago, Madelyn started eating rice cereal right before her evening bath. A few days beforehand (while we were eating dinner), Madelyn started acting like she was eating with us (so we decided it was time to broaden her meal options a little). I'm sure she wanted a bite or two of the steak we were eating, but I am not going to feed our 5-month old child steak for her first "non-milk" meal......she'll expect it for every meal! Madelyn ate every spoonful and was so excited to be sitting in her high chair.


A few days later, Bethany and I decided to introduce vegetables. The options were sweet peas or carrots. I chose carrots....due to the fact that I didn't want to catch a whiff of the sweet peas. Madelyn seemed to enjoy the carrots (and we've enjoyed cleaning up afterward). She has now tried carrots, sweet peas, and peaches. For those wondering....no I did not taste the carrots (or any other baby food). Gross!



...for some reason, Madelyn gets a kick out of having her face cleaned off after eating. She smiles/giggles each time.


...don't mess with Madelyn when she is drinking her milk! You are liable to lose an arm (if she had teeth.....which she is starting to, more on that later)!

not sure whether the baby food tastes bad, but i sure looks pretty unappealing. I suppose I might try everything we feed MD at some point though.
