Yummy!

Eloise is certainly becoming a bigger fan of solid foods. She was never really jazzed about the rice cereal on it's own, but she'll definitely eat it when it's mixed in with her fruits and veggies. Like I did with Claire, I am again making most of our baby food. So far, Eloise has had and enjoyed sweet potatoes, bananas, avocado, peas, carrots, pears, prunes (of course), and it looks like mango is in her near future.

Claire has continued to be a very attentive big sister. While a part of her wants to sit in the high chair herself and taste the baby food, she is much more interested in helping out. The other night, Claire did a pretty good job feeding Eloise. She seemed very proud of herself for being such a good helper.

Click here to see a video of Claire feeding Eloise.

Early in the video, Claire comments that Eloise's food is "a little bit yucky." Also, the buzzing alarm is our rice cooker letting us know that it was done cooking. I didn't figure out how to edit that out, sorry!

  1. Molly - thanks for the wonderful pix of the girls. they are such great friends/sisters, already. I'm glad that you two managed to "keep it together" when leaving her at school. nothing like that first day!
    Patty Johnson also just read your blog and loved it. We just went to Celeste's dad's memorial at her bother's house for a celebration of Dad's time here. Very nice. love - Mom xoxoxxo
