Covered in carrots

I'm not going to say that Riley has mastered eating rice cereal but he has certainly had some practice by now and he's getting pretty good at eating.  So that means its time for the next step - pureed foods!  His first choice was carrots!

The verdict on carrots:  he likes them!  He has this habit of trying to help get the food to his mouth faster by shoveling it off the spoon with his finger that we are going to have to break.  No one is going to want to sit with the kid in high school who scoops his soup into his mouth with his finger...

We will continue to give Riley rice cereal and carrots for about a week to make sure that he doesn't have any reactions and if he's in the clear, we get to introduce another food into the mix.  We are taking votes on what the next food should be.  The options that we bought are as follows:  sweet potatoes, peas, bananas, pears, applesauce.  Let the voting begin!
