Hooray for food!!!

So, we finally took the plunge recently and starting giving Isla solid food! She had been wanting to nurse pretty much non stop for about a week and since she will be officially 6 months old (the age at which everyone says they can eat solids) on Wednesday, we decided to go for it. Turns out she loves to eat!! We documented the occasion with some great photos!




Here is a before pic of her and her dad. The are both pretty stoked about the momentous occasion!






She stole the spoon pretty much right away. Classic Isla - has to do everything herself :)




Happy baby with a full belly!

So far she has had baby cereal (a mix of rice, quinoa, millet and some other grain I can't remember), avocado, banana, and butternut squash! She has yet to deny any food and really likes to try new ones!




Here she is munching some avocado. Again stealing the spoon! She's going to be a guacamole lover for sure!



This new development has given Haley a much needed break from nursing almost contstantly and Isla is back to her normal nursing schedule. We are also hoping this also helps her to sleep better. It seems to be helping out a little, but time will tell if its the miracle everyone tells us it is at getting your baby to sleep through the night! Lets hope it is!
