A is for Avocado

As much as I wanted to wait until Chloe was 6 months to start solids, this little girl had different plans. Chloe is constantly grabbing for food, opening her mouth and licking her lips while watching us eat, and you can just forget about trying to drink anything while holding her because she thinks it's for her. One day while slicing an avocado, she almost started hyperventilating in her bumbo watching me. I decided to mash some up with a little formula and see what she would do. Well, she's a fan. She opened her mouth nice and wide for the spoon and after each bite she squealed and waved her hands in anticipation of the next bite. She's had avocados three days in a row now, and she finished every morsel each time. It's been fun for me and a completely different experience from her older sisters who never cared for those first baby foods. Time to start making lots of baby food!
