First Bites

We've been waiting for this day since their four month appointment. We were finally able to give the babes their first tastes of food. We made them Dahl - which is a mix of red lentils, chicken stock, curry powder and turmeric. The pediatrician said to make it so we would like it. And we did.

We put the kids in their new high chairs. I heated up about a quarter cup of the Dahl in the microwave. Frank started filming their big event.

It was so much fun to feed them, watching them enjoy their first tastes. I like seeing how they learn to accept the spoon coming to their mouths. It's fun to watch them learn how to use their tounge. It feels so good as a parent to be able to feed them healthy food. I hope that we're able to continue to give them food that we eat as they continue to expand their growing palates.

We've moved on to giving them sweet potatoes, a taste of bananas and today they will try avocados. It so amazing to give them human food. Downside...the diapers.
