I got my first chance to feed Zack solid foods today. As you may have guessed by the title, I fed him peas for his first solid meal. If you guessed anything other than peas, well, you are an idiot.
I was originally going to feed him bananas to start, but his pediatrician made a good point in that no one wants to eat vegetables after they've had fruit. Duh! WTG on the advice, Dr. Field!
At any rate, he loved, loved, loved the peas! I was so excited. I stuck that little spoon in his mouth and he just started sucking away. He really seemed to enjoy it, which made me happy. He finished off the whole jar. Woooooooohoo! And really, he was messy of course, but he wasn't nearly as messy as I thought he'd be. I am such a proud mama. :)
Yikes! I sure am tired, but Andy and I are supposed to get together and hang out today. I'm not sure what we're going to do, but I'm not going to fall asleep now and miss it.
I went to the doctor today. I've had a bit of a weak cold that has hung on for a month, maybe more than that now. It was amazing. I was seen promptly at ten, then only waited a few short minutes on my doctor to arrive after all the vitals were done, and I was gone in under thirty minutes. How cool is that?
My friend/former boyfriend Aaron has promised me a letter and photos, since I have no photos of him whatever!! I am excited, as this will be the first time he's ever written me via snail mail, much less sent pictures. I am supposed to have it by Friday. Yippee!

Congrats. I hate peas. I've been told I loved them as a baby but I can't stand them now. Maybe it's just the fact that it's something new that makes it seem so wonderful to babies. I don't know. I guess you'll get to find out as he tries more and more things.
Peas are my favorite veggie, which is why I started with them. :)

Cute title , LOL
Mmmm, peas are a nice first food.
Interesting that the doctor talked about starting with a veggie rather than a fruit.
Glad Zack liked his peas , he must have been REALLY like dthose peas if he ate the whole jar!
