First foods

Hawk has been slowly trying - and mostly liking - some new foods! So far he has tried banana, applesauce, sweet potato, roasted broccoli, pasta, melon, steamed carrots, and rusks. He's (obviously) still trying to get the hang of swallowing food, so it's very cute to see him using a finger or the end of a spoon in his mouth as he learns to suck, chew and swallow. (There's still a lot of yawning and gagging as he learns!) I've been spoon-feeding him thinned out baby food and also finger foods. He's so proud of himself sitting up in the booster seat at the table. Last week he really enjoyed having pasta with us at dinner. Who doesn't love a baby with pasta hanging out of his mouth?!

Dr Mattias is keeping his stethoscope handy just in case.
