Solid food!

My mom bought Mackenzy this cute high chair that matches her bouncy seat! We tried it out a few times before we gave her her 1st taste of solid food! She looks so cute in it and I can tell she likes being up higher where she can watch our every move!

She likes to chew on the shoulder straps and kicks the tray, but all is good!

So far we have tried rice cereal (which she is not to fond of) and sweet potatoes which she loved! She likes to try and grab the spoon, gets food on her hand, and then rubs it on her face! Here is what she looked like after eating sweet potatoes and rice cereal... Yum!

Next week I'm going to begin making and freezing her food because I find it disgusting that baby food has a shelf life of 2 years... All of her food won't be homemade but hopefully the majority of it will be!



She also has a sippy cup that we let er experiment with. She's mainly chewing on it and can't quite figure out the sucking motion, but I think she's slowly figuring out how to get some of the water out. Yes I said water! We've gotta start her off right- veggies and water.

Finally, she got her 1st cold this week. She's very snotty and whiny and has a little cough, but the doctor says she should be fine in a few more days. She weighed 14 lbs with clothes on and yelled at the doctor when he pulled goo out of her ears. Hopefully she will get better soon...
