success with solids

yay! it only took a month, but finally...for the last 2 weeks or so...you, miss adelyn have been liking solids! hallelujah! it still often takes a little coercing at first, but then...you eat...
AND like it!!!
you prefer finger foods still and don't miss your mouth much at all! your favorite finger foods are banana and puffs.
2 weeks ago, i was lucky to get a few bites in your mouth a day...now, you eat 6 cubes per day! each cube is a little over an ounce. (carrots and plums)
we're also trying water in a sippy cup! drinking, not so much...but you love trying!
your menu at 7 1/2 mos, adelyn:
7am - nurse
8am - 2 cubes fruit w/ oatmeal
11am - nurse
12pm - 1 cube fruit and 1 cube vegetable
3pm - nurse, sometimes snack
5pm - 2 cubes vegetables or 1 cube fruit/1 cube veg, and a mum
6:45pm - nurse

fruits: banana, avacado, pears, peaches, plums, apples
vegetables: sweet potatoes, squash, peas, carrots, gr beans

next up are apricots and zucchini. once your stash runs out, i think it will be mostly finger foods. and in a few weeks we get to add all kinds of new foods to your menu - dairy, meats and more grains! fingers crossed!

you're doing great ad! :)
