Ashton eats...

...solid food!

Yes, we have started Ashton on the journey of discovering *real* food! He is taking to it well, of course. What human being doesn't want to eat, eat, eat! YUM. Even though he is just shy of being five months old, we knew it was time. To date he has tried rice cereal, peas and sweet potatoe.

Neela also started baby cereal at five months, as seen below. The major difference - she sat casually in her chair (notice no straps) and happily let me spoon the food into her waiting mouth.

Ashton on the other hand....has been a bit of a handful. I have to practically hold him down as he loves to lunge at the bowl I am holding, or whip the spoon out of my hand. He gobbles up the food but can not stop playing while he eats it.
Notice the one arm being restrained. =) Ah, the memories.
