So for the past couple of weeks we have been trying to get Ethan to start eating some solid foods. We have been having varying degrees of success. For the first week or so he would grimace and just let the food dribble out of his mouth. That was rice cereal. Then we tried buckwheat cereal and he seemed to like that a little bit better. He would at least open his mouth once in a while and on occasion he would even dive for it like he really loved it! Then I decided to make some pureed acorn squash and see if he would like something besides just cereal! This was his reaction…
He was not too thrilled. At least at first. After some time and a little persistence, this was the result…
Amazingly he finished the entire bowl!! We were very impressed! However, since then he still seems to prefer the buckwheat, so we’ll see. Dale seems to think it’s very funny that his son likes buckwheat. I’m not really sure why…
Here’s another cute picture of Ethan ready for his bath…
And here he is exploring for something!! He’s so curious…
And here he is looking cute in an outfit from Grandpa Cecil and Grandma Ann…

TOO CUTE!
He’s going to grow up to be a big, strong boy with all that buckwheat and squash!
Really! Can’t you give him something better tasting to eat!?!
