First Food: Avocado!

On Saturday, Finley turned six months old, which mean it was time for her first bites of solids. She ate about one quarter of an avocado this morning. She takes after her grandad and mom, she loved it! She even tried to feed herself with the spoon. What a big girl already.

At the end, she was getting tired, so she decided she needed to rub her avocado hands all in her eyes. So we got her first food and her first spa treatment avocado face mask all in one.

After three days of avocado, we are moving on to sweet potatoes and then bananas.

Warning: if babies covered in messy food isn't your thing, don't scroll down any further.

Ready to eat The first taste I want to do it myself
She thinks the spoon is a lollipop
Daddy helps keep my hands clean
So yummy
Reaching for the food and spoon with avocado face
All cleaned up and ready for her nap

how adorable!!! You know, before I had a baby I thought babies with food on their face was just gross. It's funny how things change...now I think it's somewhat cute! HA! She looks so excited to be eating her yummy avocado.

I still think it is super disgusting. What is funniest is that Clifton kept trying to clean her up while I was still feeding her. What is the point? she is just going to be all avocado-y again within seconds!
