I had wanted to put off giving Elia solid food until at least she was six months or more. I have horrible allergies so they recommend waiting to give them real food so that they build up as much immunity as they can. Well Elia does NOT like to keep on track. She is always two steps ahead of schedule. She has been staring at us eating for quite some time with doe eyes. She licks her lips and has all the signs of a baby ready for real food. She even tried to take food from Josh the other day. Soooo, with MUCH reluctance on my part and major enthusiasm on Daddy's part, we gave her mashed banana the other night. I was really hoping she would just play with it but not be interested in eating it. MAN WAS I WRONG!!!
She LOVED it! Couldn't get enough. You would think she was starving to death by the way she devoured it up. I took these pictures between sobs of course. I am soooo not ready for this. We don't even have a utensils for her yet. Guess we have to take another trip to Baby's R Us this weekend.
