feeding frenzy

One of the magical things about watching Ben grow up is being able to witness all of his little milestones. He has gone from being totally reliant on us for absolutely everything to mostly reliant on us for absolutely everything! 2 Months ago we started feeding him solid (mostly pureed) foods. We started with the traditional baby rice cereal and every week we get to introduce a new taste and texture. Currently, the menu consists of: cereal, pears, apples, bananas, mangoes, sweet potatoes, peas, carrots and chicken. Not too bad- a nice balance of fruits, veggies and protein. Just recently I thought we would expand our horizons and introduce the exotic avocado. A picture is worth a thousand words...


Ben is excited to try avocadoes for the very first time



He totally gagged- avocadoes are disgusting



This face says he is out for revenge!

With a look like that, I'd better watch my back! Maybe we'll stick to carrots- his favorite!
