I was going to wait until Harper was 6 months old to start solids. I mean really, what's the rush? But she's been showing signs that she may be ready. So on Monday, June 5th we decided to give it a try. Daddy set up the high chair (a gift courtesy of Grandma and Grandpa F). Delaney wanted in on the action and insisted on being my helper. "I do it Mommy!" All while I'm making sure she doesn't shove the spoon too far back in her mouth. This independence stuff can be hard to handle at times. Delaney is so strong willed. I have no idea where she gets that from. Wink =) Back to Harper. She has been watching us eat for a while and is going through SO much formula throughout the day. She took the spoonfuls of rice cereal like a champ, but not knowing what to do with it once it was in her mouth, she spit it out. We haven't tried to feed her the rice cereal again since that day. I'm planning to try again this weekend. She'll get the hang of it soon I'm sure.
