Oh Boy....Baby Food...Yuk!

October 31, 2011 marked the first day of introducing solid foods to Isaac.  The pediatrician provided a list of foods and a rotation schedule to follow to start the introduction of foods and flavors.  We are to start with about a tablespoon of selected food after his morning bottle and stay the course until he likes it.  Once he likes it, then move to the next item on the list.  The first item becomes lunch and the second item becomes the new breakfast food.  Well, easier said than done!

First item on the list, Squash.  Now I have to be honest, this is the first time I've ever bought baby food and I know it's simply pureed but the squash looks gross.  I even had a small sample and it's nothing I would eat either, at least not without plenty of seasoning.  

Okay momma, what is this strange stuff you're putting in my mouth??  Num, num, num, num.

I'm not sure I like this stuff momma....

Feeding food to Isaac is pure entertainment.  With each bite he would scrunch his face and crinkle his nose.  He moved his tongue around trying to taste but had more fun pushing the food back out.  He's also very expressive and animated with his hands right now so in between bites his fingers go right in his mouth or he would grab the bib and put it in his mouth.  In a matter of seconds Isaac was quickly covered in squash and momma too.
