I’m linking up with Katie at Mummy Daddy Me again this week for some more ‘Ordinary Moments’.
At Christmas we gave Toby his first food to play with. He has eaten a few things since then but he doesn’t really seem that interested at the moment. Still, I’m trying to give him the opportunity to eat at least once a day and this week he tried porridge for the first time!
I wasn’t sure if he had actually eaten any or not, he seemed to spit most of it out. That was until the next day’s nappy – then I was sure he had definitely eaten some! And I will leave you with that image….it is after all a very ordinary moment for all parents of young children!
Haha oh how well I know that image now!!!
We are still giving loaded spoons to him rather then let him have the bowl….how’s that working out for you, does he chuck it around? X
Actually, it’s a bit of a sneaky shot – I was feeding him (he won’t put anything in his mouth himself) and I’d just put the bowl down to grab the camera. I took it off him again before he had chance to throw it anywhere!!
I love it when it comes to the first tastes.. Its such a new experience for them!
First tastes are so much fun – especially the funny expressions when they try something new!
Lovely photo. Weaning was one of my favourite things, loved watching as new food was discovered.x
they start little by little…
Aww bless him. Weaning is so much fun, even if you get covered in food at times. Enjoy it and let it take however long it needs to. He’ll get there.
They get there in the end – my daughter is almost 9 months old and will eat anything. I usually mash a bit of banana into porridge, both my girls love it. Lovely post, I love feeding my baby xxx
Ah I remember that stage well, wondering whether they had eaten or not and then inspecting the nappies to see if they had. 😉 I don’t have that problem anymore as LL would eat more than me given half the chance! x
Great picture. I love watching our son play with new foods when we give them to him for the first time.
Ah bless him, he will get into the swing of it x
Aaahhh I remember those days well. Enjoy
This is so beautiful and funny! The picture says it all…I will never forget my daughter’s adventures with food when we started weaning her xx
Little Man still hasn’t had porrdge at 8 months. I cannot bare the thought of the mess – it sets like concrete between their fingers and is a nightmare to wash off – Weetabix is the same! He looks like he’s enjoying it! x
