Solids

We've been trying solids for about a month now. It took a while, but Mason has come to LOVE oatmeal. However, I fear that oatmeal is the only thing he will eat for the rest of his life! We've also tried carrots and green beans, and he wants absolutely nothing to do with them! The faces he makes are priceless though, which is why I have like 30 pictures on this post. I just can't pick the "best" ones, so I put them all! He loves his oatmeal and wants to feed it to himself!
Notice the awesome highchair we got from my friend Emily! He's still more interested in chewing on the straps than eating his food!



I've started making the faces with him...I open my mouth really wide when I want him to, and close it when I put the spoon in his mouth. I'm not sure how I expect that to help, but I can't make myself stop!


Below is our first attempt with carrots. He looks happy, but I assure you it was not because of the carrots. It was just because his mom his the coolest person he knows, and he can't help but smile at her. =)





What a gorgeous smile!! Even with carrot all over his face!




We also attempted green beans several times. The look on his face in the first picture pretty much sums up how he feels about vegetables so far.
EWWW!!!

This is so gross, but my mom is SO funny!

What an angel! (This is currently the background on my computer!)


So, we haven't had much luck yet, but we're going to keep trying! Man cannot live on oatmeal alone! =) I think we'll try squash next!

Even with food all over him he is still adorable. Try Tooti Fruiti, it smells yummy!
