Holden had his 6 month check up a few weeks ago and we received the green light to introduce some baby food. We've been successfully eating oatmeal and rice cereal for a few months and were super excited about the new adventures we were about to experience as we started to introduce different flavors of food.
We started with something simple, green beans. Needless to say that didn't go over so well. The first night was just a few bites to get him thinking about the idea of new taste. The second night, he was gagging!
The one positive outcome----at least he didn't spit it back at me :)
Our second introduction was with sweet potatoes! Holden loves him some sweet potatoes. Never even phased him. I think the funniest part of our sweet potato trial was daddy singing the sweet potato song in the background.
Bananas were also a favorite going in. Not so much coming out! Let's just say that there were a lot of diapers sacrificed as a result. Not sure why, but we didn't capture the banana tasting.
Most recently, carrots! I think my kid loves anything orange! Carrots were a success! Yummmm. I can't wait for him to start saying that after each bite. Right now, he just opens up for us to shovel it in.
That's all for now in the adventures of Holden's food tasting. Stay tuned for what's up next????
