Eli has been sitting in his high chair with us at the table while we eat dinner. Usually he just relaxes and plays with his toys.
But today, I made a real effort to feed Eli some banana (smashed with a little bit of breast milk) today. I got out the baby spoons and everything. He was eyeing my salad like nobody's business, so I decided to give this solids thing another try. Why banana? It was the easiest thing at the moment. I have a sweet potato and avocado on hand as well, but I wanted to make sure the tongue thrust reflex had disappeared before I started preparing other foods.
And of course, I had my camera on hand to capture the big moment.

| That real food is for me?? |
 |
| Ok... I'll try it... |
 |
| Hmm... let me think about this. |
 |
| Still thinking... |
 |
| I like! Gimme more. |
 |
| This is fun! |
 |
| Oh wait. |
 |
| Should I smile about this or... |
 |
| Spit it out? Yep, spit it out. I'm done. |
Maybe he liked the silly "nom nom nom nom nom" sounds I was making more than the banana? Oh well! We'll try again tomorrow!
...and the fun begins! That made me laugh out loud.
