Just like peas and carrots...

Max has started on baby food. We did rice cereal snuck in his bottle for a while, but that made it hard for him to do his "business". We gave him some prunes to help with that, and what a blow out that caused! LOL! Anyway, we're slowly introducing new foods. He started with some sweet potatoes given to him from my finger. I figured the food was enough to get used to, let's not add the spoon to the mix just yet. He didn't LOVE the sweet potatoes, but it went OK. We tried pears over the weekend ... let's just say he didn't really like those at all.

The doctor also told us to start him on some watered down juice. So, we tried apple juice. The first time he flipped like a damn pancake! And cried like a crazy man! The second time, he took two sips from his bottle and started spitting it out. Tried again last night and he gave me the big boober lip as if to say, "Where's the white stuff, mommy?" So, I gave him the boobie! LOL...

Last night we had our first adventure with carrots. I think he's a vegetable man, like his daddy. But then again, what part of him isn't like his daddy? He didn't gobble them up, but he seemed to enjoy them a bit more than the peaches, that's for sure. We even used a spoon! WOW! What a big boy! ha ha ha.... So, I'm calling the carrots a mild success. Maybe we should try peas next!

Max is not quite sure what to think of his new food.
