Carrots...to eat, or not to eat??

.........TO EAT!!!

At Eliza's appt. on Thurs., the Dr. said that she can start on the step one baby foods like fruits and veggies...veggies first, and one at a time to check for allergies. So we decided to start on carrots this week. She LOVED them!! I wish we had thought to get out the video camera, but I'm kinda new at that...bummer. We thought her initial reaction would be disgust, but it was more like "wow, flavor"!! There is so much more to adding colorful veggies to her menu than just her approval...like orange boogies (luckily she, for some reason likes the boogie sucker thing) and colored spit up!! Which is the worst!! AGH!!! So bibs are a definate MUST now, even more so than before! It is so fun though to be going through all of these exciting stages! Its really setting in more and more with each phase that she is in fact getting bigger and older...bitter sweet for sure. Another cute thing is that as of this week she has started reacting to our kisses (with more than just a grimace=) now when we kiss her mouth, she opens wide and attacks!! We arent sure if its cus she thinks she will get food, but we'd like to think she is giving us kisses=) We just love our little munchkin!!
