Little T's first taste of food... part 1...

Now Little T is over 17 weeks old, he is able to have some actual food! I know, I can't believe it either...

Official guidance advises that you wean babies around 6 months old, and although T is a little early to be eating, he has been showing lots of the signs that he is ready for food.

We bought him a special Peter Rabbit bowl and spoon for the occasion and some organic baby rice from Boots.



We mixed a couple of spoons of baby rice together with some formula milk to give Little T to try...

We sat Little T on Daddy H's knee... half a spoonful later and although he didn't look too impressed, it went pretty well!

Baby rice seems pretty bland, so we are hoping to move onto pureed vegetables in the next few days.  We have got lots of handy tips and recipes from Annabel Karmel's 'New Complete Baby & Toddler Meal Planner'.

Part 2 will focus on the 'must buys' for weaning and some handy tips on encouraging good eating habits at baby meal times.

Let's hope Little T looks a little more impressed with his next meal than he does below at his first try!
