Green Beans & Peas.... WOO-HOO!
This past weekend, Graham had his first food outside of milk and cereal -- Green Beans! I have video footage of his reaction, which was PRICELESS and involved a funny face and a full body shiver. My thinking is that if I start him with the least appealing things first, he won't expect everything to taste like applesauce. It worked for Cole. Next we'll do peas, then yellow squash, then carrots, then sweet potatoes... and then finally I'll let him have some FRUIT. For those of you nonparents, it will actually be close to 2 weeks before we get to fruit, because you can only introduce one new food every 3-4 days so if they have an allergic reations, you know exactly what the reaction is to. Tonight is the night for his first PEAS! Woo-hoo! It really is amazing that feeding my baby peas now constitutes a rockin' evening for me. I have officially become lame.

I like the scientific approach to the food-introduction-allergy thing!
And you're not lame, you're just a great mom! :)
