Baby's first bite.
Discovering taste, and texture.
First bite.
Chelsea and Martin steamed the vegetable until it was very soft so that it would be easy to swallow without much chewing. They are following a movement that lets babies feed themselves (self-fed) by letting him discover texture/taste by grabbing and manipulating his own food rather than have it pureed and spoon-fed.
Sounds good, fun and messy to me.
Notice the plastic covering on the floor, a spoon, a bowl, and a bib and a carrot.
At his check-up at the doctor's today, he weighed 10 kilos. Gabriel is nearly 7 months old. No teeth yet.
Breastmilk has served him well and will continue to serve him well.
