I meant to start her out with butternut squash and I even had some the I made myself with a squash from our church community garden. However, when I defrosted the yellowy orange baby food, it turned out to be peaches. Oops. So, Gemma's first food was peaches.
She loved the attention at first and liked trying something new. However, she was not pleased that she was not allowed to control the spoon. It was certainly a challenge to get the food into her mouth with her arms waving around like a windmill. Short, yet destructive little windmills.
After several bites, Gemma decided she wasn't loving the peaches. The flavor was perhaps too strong? She made some very entertaining faces - which the other two kids enjoyed a great deal.
Since then, we have been slowly introducing her to other foods every few days. She has now had peaches, squash, and oatmeal!
