Solid Food = Solid Poop!

Wow - I had to light two candles this afternoon after I changed Noelle's diaper!  I thought her "milk" only diapers smelled ripe!!  I am very proud to say we moved into the next milestone - solid foods.  We started giving her rice cereal last week.  I didn't know how she would react to the cereal.  Would she like it?  Would she eat it?  To my surprise she liked the taste, just didn't know how to eat with a spoon.  Noelle kept trying to suck on the spoon like a bottle.  It was so cute.  It only took her two days to figure it out.  She now opens up her mouth and grunts when she is ready for another bite.

Next week...VEGGIES!  The pediatrician recommended bad tasting vegetables first, so she will eat the veggies plus yummy fruits.  Hmmmmm...what ones to start with?  Also - stay tuned... I will be making my own baby food.  Baeba - check, recipes - check.  So excited!  I love being a mommy!

Love,
Noelle's Mommy
