I have been patiently waiting for this moment - to start giving my son real food. Now I'm not really sure if you can consider rice cereal "real food" but it's close. So today, for lunch, I tried a little runny rice cereal off a spoon - he was quite intrigued and did very well with the spoon! Later on, I got a new Avent nipple for thicker liquids and put some rice cereal in his dinner bottle. He loved it!
I was so excited that I boiled some potatoes and threw them in the food processor to freeze for later! I'm going to wait until he gets used to the rice cereal and take things slow... But now I'm reading that I can add some spices and things to his first foods too! So, now I'm off to look up baby friendly spices/flavoring options... :) so excited...
