Yam-tastic!! Sweet Potato Party!!

That's right folks, Fudge has moved on to solids, more or less. Really, the food is not that solid. Maybe we should call this phase moving on to "puddings"? It sounds more appetizing (who doesn't love pudding!) and is far more accurate than solids.

Anyway, Kiernan started eating rice cereal Friday before last and couldn't get enough. This last Friday he got his first real food, sweet potatoes. And as you can see from the video, the only problem Kiernan has with eating is the lag time from emptying the spoon to refilling it and getting it into his mouth. Watch his hands actually grab my hand and shove the spoon on in!

This is an exciting time for Mom, Dad, and little Fudge. We will be embarking on a "let's see what we can get him to eat!" campaign. We'll be introducing a different food every three days starting with the vegetables. The excitement is mainly for Dad who is going to begin scouring the world of baby foods for some of the most random edibles he can find, and if it can't be found it will be made onsite. BWA HAHAHA! Mom is excited too, but less so, because she is a little sad about losing her cuddle/nursing time with the Bug.

We'll keep the updates coming.
