Lucy got her first taste of solid foods last night! I think we were WAY more excited than she was. She’d eat formula for the rest of her life if it her up to her. 🙂
I thought I had jars of stage 1 sweet potatoes, but I didn’t, so we started with squash. Lucy wasn’t really sure what to think at first.

We can’t tell what she really thinks of squash. She made faces the whole time, and we’re not sure if that’s because she wasn’t a fan of the taste or of eating foods off a spoon in general. She did have a great time getting all messy, though!

And, we did manage to get a smile out of her.

This morning, she tried rice cereal for the first time, and she cried the whole time. So, either she didn’t like it AT ALL, or she was just a super grumpy girl. We gave her a little more squash and then washed it all down with formula, which she was really excited about.
We’ll stay with just squash for another day or so, and then we’ll add in another food. I’m still deciding what that will be. Maybe sweet potatoes or peas.

I remember doing that… I thought it was so fun to try those new foods. Plus, it meant my kid wasn’t perpetually starving anymore. 😉 And he loved everything we shoveled into his mouth, so he was easy.
GL with the rest!
Solids, wow! She really is growing up oh so fast!
