Our wonderful 5 month old baby girl had her first taste of sweet potato baby food tonight. She was a bit perplexed at first but really started to smile with pride as she got her first meal (beyond rice cereal). Maybe she picked up cues because all of us were so excited to watch. My beloved decided that it was best to feed her as we all settled down for supper.
The funny thing about youngest babies is that the parents aren't the only ones to share the excitement of each first. Her older sisters were excited to watch and smile with her.
