Heimana's appetite for solids and grown-up food is rapidly developing. I remember being amazed at how rapidly Matotea became obsessed with the dinner table, but Heimana, with the help of her sister, is catching on even faster.
Compote and baby food works well (chicken, rice and tomato or apple,banana and blueberry are current fvourites) but it's a two man or a two spoon job!
Even better is the real thing from our plates, a crust of bread does the trick for a few minutes.....but she's sure that we're holding out on her! She happily gums at a bit of rice or mashed banana.
Water from a glass or a cup of herbal infusion (red fruit or mint) are also accepted, if there's nothing better around!
She's also experimenting with some slightly less suitable food stuffs - our rubber ring, for instance,
I know we should be encouraging her to eat her greens, but we need a little talk about cooking methods, or to wait for those pearly whites to grow!
Dad's already leading her astray, and she loves it!
(No babies were harmed or intoxicated for the making of this photo!)
