Beware the devourer!

This lunchtime we made a large step for this family and gave Daniel his first taste of genuine pureed organic mush. The old staple carrots were chosen for the process and after only three attempts the correct tool for pureeing was found. The bright, bright orange mixture was then transferred into the little tubs purchased for the use of, and we got ready for the fun and games. It was decided that I would feed him and Jacqui would record the event, probably a smart move on her part.

The munchkin was then attired in his new bib and strapped down next to the table. This is the before picture.

So a spoonful of mush was liberally smeared over his mouth and he was not convinced of the value of this new idea.


So we added some more to rapturous ambivalence.


The next spoonful was also not an instant hit.

Although he was generally enjoying the process.

I said generally

But in conclusion none of the food that went in was actually spat out and there was no crying from anyone involved so a success was declared. This is just the tasting part of the process we've decided to choose so he's just getting a different taste every day as well as getting used to the spoon and food.

Tomorrow we think we'll feed him during our dinner time so he feels more part of it and also warm the food slightly so it foes not feel so strange for him.
