| broccoli! |
Over the last few weeks, at our pediatrician's recommendation, we've started introducing some solid foods into Wilder's diet. I did a lot of research, and we decided to go with "
Baby-led weaning" which is basically, serving your child the same food you eat. Not pureeing or using jarred food--just making sure to place a variety of healthy foods in front of Wilder that are safe for him to eat. Starting out with food cut into french fry shapes, basically. It just makes sense for our family. It's not a big deal how much he actually eats, but he is getting a little food in there (most of it ends up in his bib pocket or on the floor, which Ellie loves). I wasn't sure how it would go, but he's quickly jumped on the bandwagon. We're only doing dinner right now because it's a mess, but he likes trying new things. Here are some photos of Wilder chowing down!
 |
| First food: Asparagus. Fun fact: I never ate asparagus until I was an adult! |
 |
| skirt steak. He sucked on it for a while. |
 |
| Cutie orange. Made such a mess but he sure did like it. |
 |
| Last time he ate without a bib :-) |
