Food!

Blake's doctor likes us to wait until the 6 month appointment before they give us the go-ahead to start solids.  But Blake has shown so much interest in food lately, that we decided that waiting is just silly...so we just went for it.  We tried some purees first to see how he'd do.  He chowed down the sweet potatoes like a champ!  Since then I've tried several other things some of which he hasn't cared much for (apples, oatmeal).   So I took a banana tonight and just mushed it up some (it was still pretty thick) since he didn't seem to bothered by textures...and he ate half the banana!  I couldn't mush it fast enough for him, so I got yelled at several times during his snack.  It's a bit overwhelming because Abby just never got into food and could really care less to eat.  Crazy that we are on kid #2, but I feel so new at this!  I really, really hope this is a good sign and that he will be eating good, healthy food very soon!

Here is a video of the banana-crazy kid!
