Solids: take 2

After waiting a month from our 1st trial, we started our 2nd attempt of solids with Taylor last week and it is going down as a huge success. She is gobbling up the oatmeal and prefers it over the rice cereal. She is even grabbing the spoon and pulling it into her mouth. Next on the list is avocado, then bananas and pears...all of which I have nicely cubed and frozen ready for Taylor consumption.
Again, I wonder why anyone buys this stuff. It's so easy to make and use....I'd have to argue that it's 10X easeir than staring at rows and rows of jars to pick just the right ones, purchasing, carrying and storing all those annoying little jars (come on you know every mother has dropped her share of baby food jars onto the grocery isle floor)!

I hear you on making your own baby food!

Ethan and Logan also *HATED* rice cereal. I was so discouraged by the fact they wouldn't eat I stopped solids for a week. Per April's suggestion we tried oatmeal instead and haven't looked back.
