Yummy Foods

Elliot has been getting more and more excited about eating "real" food. All of his foods so far are things I've cooked and pureed, then frozen in ice cube trays in 1T servings.

I've started mixing some of the flavors. This week he has had pear with banana and sweet potato with apple. Both of which he devoured. He now reaches for the spoon and shoves it in his mouth himself. With the sweet potato/apple today, I couldn't get a new scoop fast enough for him. He wanted it NOW. Probably half of what goes towards his mouth ends up on his chin or bib, but he's definitely getting a taste of these yummy treats.

Other foods he has had and liked:
avocado
yam
hummus (yes, he liked that too)
yogurt
butternut squash
and he loves water in his sippy cup

I'll try peas sometime soon, and carrots again (he didn't like them the first time I tried).
