First Food

The day after Christmas we gave Isabella her first "food".  She enjoyed (I use the term loosely) some baby oatmeal.  She was not terribly excited by it.  I can't really blame her though.  Who wants grainy milk?  Let's face it, that's all baby cereal is.  So after trying again the next day, I decided to forget cereal and skip straight to starter foods.  Next up, was sweet potato.  Bella found this much more interesting though still only took a few bites before being done with the experience.

Since then she has enjoyed some avocado, and banana.  Banana is the clear favorite for now.  Today she ate an entire container of banana!

So we have begun the process of eating real foods and watching our little baby grow up before our eyes.  It is amazing how fast time goes.  I could swear she is still a tiny little thing who just needs to nap in her mama's arms, but alas, she grows more and more every day into her own little person.  She continues to be a personality and a half and thinks her daddy is the funniest person on the planet.  She is fascinated by the dogs and loves to watch them and pet them when they come close.

This month marks her half year birthday.  I don't know how it happened so quickly, but here we are.  I'm amazed every day by her beautiful life and the joy that she brings us.  We are so lucky to have this little girl in our lives.
