A big day in the life and advancement of Alice. Her high chair arrived today. I tried her on a wee bit of banana, if you click on the pic itself you'll see a wee bit ended up on her nose.
We're going to be doing something new called baby-led weaning. This is where you go straight from milk to finger foods. You cut out purees completely and don't feed them, they feed themselves. So she had a chunk of banana and seemed to quite enjoy it. She won't actually eat any just yet, but will eventually. The first wee while is her tasting the food and exploring the new textures. She did really well at picking it up and putting it straight into her mouth. As you can see she's really proud of herself. I'm being supported by the Health Visitor (who did this with her own children and guided parents through in her old job) and the nursery nurse. They would like me to do a talk to other parents in our area as I'm the first one to give it a go. So we'll see how we get on, loads of pictures and videos in the mean time.
Will let you know how we get on. We're going to start in earnest on Monday, once we've bought the shower curtain to go on to the carpet.
