Eleanor's first 'meal'

Now that Eleanor is six months old, it is time to start introducing "solid" foods into her diet (solid is in quotations because the food isn't exactly solid...it's just more solid than what she's used to). So today, I got Eleanor ready:

And introduced her to avocado (a great beginner food that's high in the fats that babies need;-)

This face is not because of the food--she does this when the camera flash goes off in her face.

She likes it! See the lean forward? Eleanor would have loved to grab the spoon from me--she wanted it badly.

Yum yum yum yum yum!
