Let's do lunch

Bailey had her first real food today. We decided to try sweet potatoes, one because they are a very good choice for a first food, and two because I had some in the house. We are doing yet another thing a little unconventional. We are making our own baby food. Today was my first attempt and it turned out great. I froze the leftovers, which there was a lot, in ice cube trays. I'm looking forward to trying to make new veggies and fruits. Bailey seemed to enjoy the sweet potatoes for the most part. She didn't know what to think of it at first and made some sour faces, but she ended up liking it and opening wide for another bite. I think she's really going to like food. Oh, AND she drank from a sippy cup today for the second time. She has been trying to drink water out of our cups for a while now, so Ken gave her a sippy cup to drink from and she did great. All by herself. What a big girl we have on our hands. Here are some pictures for your enjoyment.

First bite. hmm...I don't know what to think about this.

Still thinking...

This is messy mom.

I'm stunned by this new food. And the verdict is...

That was fun mom. I like sweet potatoes. Let's do lunch again!
