At Spencer’s 6 month appointment, we got the go-ahead to start him on solids! There is no doubt my big boy is ready for some food! 🙂 I decided to just start with fruits and vegetables instead of rice cereal or oatmeal. Not sure why we always carbo-load our babies with processed food from the get-go instead of starting with fruits and vegetables? Anyway, I decided bananas was a good start so that’s what we did! He wasn’t real sure what to do with it in his mouth at first but he caught on quickly. The funniest part was Maxwell – who won’t eat a fruit to save his life – thought the jar of baby food bananas was pretty good too! I think he ate over half of his brother’s food! I might have to start buying double jars – one for Spencer and one for Maxwell! ha!

This is pretty much what it looked like when Spencer ate that first jar of bananas…

and here’s some videos if you’re really interested!

So far he’s had bananas, apples, pears and sweet potatoes. Adventures in eating!
