On the recommendation of our pediatrician and the nurse at the new parents group that I go to, we decided to start with sweet potato. We brought out the cool Baby Bullet system that we got as a shower gift from Kirin, and made our own fresh and tasty food. Ellie did extremely well! She made a few funny faces, but she definitely got some food down, and - importantly - she slept the whole night through! Like a proud papa, Grant captured the event with tons of photos!
You may notice that Ellie ate her first real meal in her swing. That is because we didn't have a high chair. Now that we have a big eater, I went out and purchased one today. Ellie sure likes sitting like a big girl in her new chair. What a cutie!
