Danika's new diet

I thought that introducing the rice cereal was exciting, I couldn't wait for the actual flavor to come! After two weeks of rice cereal 2x a day, she was ready for the next step, stage 1 foods. Our doc said it really didn't matter what came first the veggies or the fruits, everyone has their own opinion. But I did want to start her off with the seemingly icky stuff first and to my surprise she likes it! We have to wait 3-5 days before introducing the next taste, but I can't wait more then the 3 days because this is all so fun and exciting! Plus she has got to catch up because at age 6 months she can start some stage 2 foods and some that contain meat! Wow. So I have bought them all, so far they are organic only because they were on sale. And Paul even bought some rice cereal and oatmeal when we were still pregnant because it was on clearance and so cheap, and yes the expiration date is still good!
So last Monday she had Peas for the first time! I swear she must have felt my excitment or just saw the camera and flashed a smile. But at this time she didn't even take a bite yet. I had just lifted the spoon to her face and she flashed this smile! Maybe she knew and was excited also.

Hhmm lemmie try that for my self, gimmie some more of those peas.

The end result, she likes it! This is how it goes with every feeding and new flavor.

Sweet potatoes

Today was the first day of Pears! We were brave not to use a bib, at first.
