It's been almost two weeks since Claire has been eating solids and she's doing great with them. The first few times trying the cereal were just ok. I could tell Claire wasn't quite sure what I expected her to do, and she never seemed all that thrilled with the cereal. Not that I blame her...She would hold the cereal in her mouth and then slowly spit it all out.
After a few tries we added some carrots and that has been going much better. She always grimaces with the first bite, but I could tell right away she was swallowing it, which I was never sure of with the cereal.
Now, she's eating the carrots like a champ. She opens her mouth for bite after bite and I know for sure that more is getting in her than on her!
I can never get enough pics of little Claire bear!! Melissa, she is BEAUTIFUL!!!! Love the feeding pics, and that adorable little "pony"!! Claire has the BEST hair:)
ReplyDeleteummmm how cute is she! love this! she looks so big though...time is flying by!
ReplyDeleteOh she's such a dolly! I want to squeeze her and kiss her and sniff that beautiful hair! Sweet baby!
ReplyDeleteThe best thing ever is when they try something really good, like bananas! I can remember the look on my babies faces when they got their first taste of heaven. Then they turned into little baby birds, begging for the next bite. She is so cute! I really miss those messy-face days.
ReplyDeleteYay Claire!!! She's so cute. I love her hair. Lily's two and doesnt' have that much hair...lol.
ReplyDeleteWay to go, Claire!!! That's one cute baby:)
ReplyDeleteOH how cute!! I just love her little face, she is such a little doll:) I'm going to have to try carrots with Lily!
ReplyDeleteWay to go with the food baby girl! What a champ!!
ReplyDeleteSuch a beautiful girl, even with carrots all over her face! I remember it taking Lucas a few months to really start to enjoy solids.
ReplyDeleteyeah claire! keep up the good eating and swallowing (especially with your veggies... we are still working with whitney on "liking" her veggies - or at least keeping them in her mouth and swallowing them) :)
ReplyDeleteYou mean it's just pureed carrots, not mixed with cereal? I'm gonna have to try that on Edry when he's ready for solids.
