Just a couple days before Tyler turned 6 months old, we started him on solids. His first bite of "solid" food was really breast milk served on a spoon mixed with a little bit of rice cereal. Not at all exciting - it was kind of a letdown after waiting so long. But, quickly, we've progressed onto various fruits and veggies that have more texture and consistency. He hasn't really hated anything, but does make a face when he tries something new. Here's an example (this was taken July 18th. He now likes apples).
His favorite food is banana. We gave it to him as finger food while we gave him a haircut recently and it kept him occupied. Yup - he's also onto finger foods and he seems to enjoy picking them up, shoving them in his mouth, and chewing without teeth. It's quite cute.
It's crazy to think that in a few months, by the time he's one, he'll be eating like a real person. The months really do fly by and our little guy is really growing up fast. But, I'm looking forward to when he turns one. Why? Well, who doesn't love birthday cake? =)
