Apples and Bananas

We've still been experimenting with different foods to get an idea of what Mads likes and to let her get used to eating big girl food.

We started with rice cereal and overall she's not really a big fan (although after smelling the stuff, I can't really say I blame her). She had one day at daycare that she went crazy for it, but for the most part she just blows raspberries into the spoon and ends up wearing most of it.

Last week I made some homemade applesauce for her and while she liked it more than the rice cereal, she still wasn't a huge fan. She'd eat a few bites and be done.

Then last night I decided to give her a pureed banana (at the suggestion of my coworker David who's adorable son J.P. is about two weeks younger than Mads). She LOVED it. I gave her about a quarter of a banana and she ate the whole thing. She was opening her mouth wide and didn't spit any out. Matt and I were definitely proud parents!!

I think next week I'm going to try mixing some applesauce with some smashed bananas which reminds me of:
