Cereal, Peas, Pears...oh my!

The girls have begun to eat solids. With twins, that's just one more thing that takes double time to prepare and accomplish. They started eating rice cereal at 51/2 months and then we got the ok from the doctor at the 6 month appointment to begin eating veggies and fruits. It is an exciting, yet messy time. The girls are now eating solids three times a day after a nursing session. Sadie eats like a champ! She does really well at eating in general and enjoys trying new foods. Maegan on the other hand makes a face of concern when food enters her mouth. She soon remembers the taste and will begin eating her food normally. One thing she doesn't mind eating is pears!! They began eating in their boppy chairs on the floor and now they have graduated to booster/high chairs. This last week the girls were a little sick, so eating was not as easy as the weeks before.... they would spit it out or just refuse it all together. They were wasting my precious milk!!! oh well, this is a learning experience for all of us.... Here are some pictures of the girls during some of our feeding times.
