First Bites

Before we talk about first food, I had to throw in this picture to prove that ALL my kids slept like this:

Okay, so ready for our first food on Thanksgiving. They changed the recommendation to waiting to start solids until 6 months, so that's what we did.  Logan is a few days shy of 6 months, but the entire family is here and gets to see it, so we're doing it today.  He has been eyeing our food, opening his mouth while we are eating, and trying to steal bites for almost 2 months now, so he's definitely ready.  Here he is, waiting for his oatmeal:

The first bite.  I think he was worried I would take it away:

I kept having to fight him for the spoon.  Big boy wants to do it himself already!

He loved it!
