Solids progress

I get to try a new food every 3 days (we wait 3 days between new foods in case I have a reaction to it). Mommy is making all of my food. I'm doing pretty good. I usually manage to swallow most of the food, although sometimes a fair amount ends up on my bib, hands, clothes etc. somes I'm too eager, and I grab the spoon, getting the food all over my hands rather than in my mouth. I eat better in the morning than in the evening (too tired and just want to nurse) so mommy is going to try making my evening feeding earlier.

So far, I've had:

rice cereal (hated it)
banana (loved it)
sweet potato (loved it)
avocado (it was ok, but mommy had to alternate bites of banana to encourage me to eat more)
oatmeal ceral (that was ok too, but again, Mommy had to add banana or sweet potato to it to make it taste better.)

Next on the list: peas, carrots, barley cereal
