So this last week Samuel has made the move from purely liquid to semi solid food. Well, i say made the transition, in reality we are still hovering over the divide. The first taste went ok, given on my (clean) finger, but I'm not sure if much actually stayed in. He would roll it around his mouth for a few seconds, then notice me watching, then smile, at which point it all came oozing out again. After a few spoonfuls he was done and ready for his fist instead.
Still the books inform me it just needs to be a fun experience right now and he doesn't actually need the nutrition till he's older. Hopefully by then we'll have mastered the art. Next stop is pureed vegetable..... I may have to strip him for that one.
