Claire's First Solids

Yes, that is mashed avacado and not rice cereal. I know that seems bizarre, but when we went in for Claire's four-month well baby check she had dropped from the 50th percentile in size to the 25th, so the doctor said it's time to beef her up a little so she doesn't fall off the charts completely. She said to add a couple of extra liquid feedings during the day, and a teaspoon or two of avacado would really do the trick. We've only tried it once and it didn't go over too well, as you can tell. She spit everything right back out. Hopefully she'll get better in the next try or two. After all, who doesn't like avacado right?

Avocado is the best for babies! I'm sure she'll get the hang of it :)
