Solid foods - sort of

So last weekend we started Austin on solid food. We tried the rice cereal, but quite frankly, it looks and smells gross and I don't see the point of feeding it to a poor child. So, Austin finished a jar of apples and a jar of carrots this week. I don't know anyone who is allergic to apples or carrots so I figured it's got to be safe!
He seems to really like it. He always makes a horrible face when it first goes in his mouth, but he doesn't spit it out and he eats a lot (for a baby)and he already is opening his mouth when he sees the spoon coming. These pictures are of him eating carrots this afternoon.
