First Foods

Noah had his first solid foods on May 5th. For the last couple of weeks he has been staring and reaching for everything I put in my mouth. (And if you've seen my butt lately, you'd know that a lot of stuff has been going in my mouth!) It seemed pretty obvious that this curious kid was ready to see what it was all about. He dined on rice cereal and applesauce. At first he had an extremely puzzled look on his face, but it didn't take long for him to realize that it tasted pretty good. Before long he zeroed in on the spoon and what the spoon would bring. As it approached his little mouth he would open wide like a little fishy, then reach out with his little hands and catch it. Then he'd start nursing the spoon, getting every last bit of goodness off of it.

Ian would be proud. It looks like this kid isn't going to let one bite of food go to waste!
