We waited more than 6 months before we started Isadora on solids. I really wanted to nurse the full 6 months and when 6 months did sneak up on us, we found we had just fallen into this routine of me nursing and getting out of that routine was difficult. When we finally did start solids at about 6.5 months, we gave her rice cereal, skipped oatmeal and jumped to barley. After only about a week of cereal, we started avocado. Can't you see the love all over her face?
Since avocado, we've move onto bananas, sweet potatoes, pears, applesauce, and carrots. She seems to be a pretty big fan of food. She makes a disgusted face, but opens up her mouth for another bite.
I love making baby food. I loved making Lincoln's food and I am so happy to be able to make Isadora's, too. I am looking forward to her eating new foods and creating new recipes.
Hopefully Isa enjoys eating in the future as much as she does now!
