Peas...

Today was our first attempt to give Torin veggies. I had made some homemade pureed peas earlier this week. So after his 1 o'clock feeding, we sat him in his Bumbo seat and loaded up his spoon with a little of the peas. Have to say that he was not a fan. I think I got 3 small bites in his mouth, but I'm fairly certain everything came right back out.

After we decided to abandon the effort, I tried the peas. The flavor was good but I think part of his bad reaction was to the texture of the puree. There were small pieces of the skin of the peas and they kind of got stuck to your tongue. Torin kept making this sound with his throat so I don't think he liked that part of it.

The good news is that the doctor said you don't have to wait 4 days between new foods...only 24 hours. So maybe tomorrow we'll try the carrots I made today.

More fun to come!
