First Solids

And just like that...that little newborn (OK 5 1/2 month old) of mine is eating solids! We tried to hold off as long as we could but it was becoming more and more evident that she was ready to eat! She was following our utensils while we ate, she would open her mouth hoping something would come her way and then finally she started crying when we weren't feeding her. So one day last week I decided it was time. I baked up a sweet potato, tossed it in the blender and voila...food for days! She sure LOVED it! Cait got in on the action to and took her turn feeding her baby sister. It was a fun day for all of use and the big girls were so excited to help feed Nora for dinner that night. We're so grateful for Nora and the light she brings into our family! She's pretty awesome!
