Solids...

We started John on solids on Sunday 14 December. We got the go ahead from his pd and decided it was time. His first meal consisted of home-made organic brown rice watered down with breastmilk. You'd think the bub would find it delish, but this is what he thought of it:

Well, he soon got the hang of it and he was eating much much better. Here's another pic of him after a few more meals.

Since his first week, we have introduced sweet potato and avacadoes, both of which he loves. On top of that, we've started him on two meals a day instead of one and he's still eating well. Mummy's having lots of fun making his meals and having the satisfaction of seeing him wolf it down. :) Oh, did I mention John's now a whopping 8kg!!! For a 6 and a half month bub, i think that's quite a load wouldn't you say?
