Starting Solids

My dearest Belle,

You started eating solids!

I’ve been looking forward to introducing you to solid foods for a while now, and after debating which food item to start with, I decided to go with oatmeal cereal. You didn’t know what to make of the different texture at first (not to mention the new way of eating with a spoon), but you caught on quickly!

The plan is to give you a serving of cereal with your first and last meal of each day for about a week before introducing you to a new food item. Next on the list:

AVOCADO!!!

Papa and I are so excited about these milestones that you’re hitting! You’re growing up so fast~~~~ I’m so proud of you!

Love always,
Mama
