Today was another milestone for Sam – we introduced him to solid food. Really more symbolic than anything else, this first meal was still pretty much liquid, 1 tablespoon of rice cereal disolved in five tablespoons of formula. Nonetheless, it involved (a) Sam sitting in a chair (b) The use of a spoon and (c) The foodstuff involved was slightly more substantial than unadulterated formula. Thus, it counts as his first non-liquid meal. Sam loved it, and wanted to ‘help’ guide the spoon to his mouth. Next up will be sweet potatoes or green beans, then sweeter stuff later on.
