food

food has been a bit of a challenge with esther so far. we have tried bananas, avocado, peas, apples, butternut squash, and of course, rice cereal. we had not had much such with any of the above foods. she is a touch stubborn (perhaps like one of her parents...:-) and she closes her mouth as soon as she sees the spoon with food and won't open it for anything! yesterday we decided to just let her do it herself and see if that made any difference and we tried cheerios as well. as you can see from the photo, she had a little bit of fun with it and we were able to get a little in her mouth here and there! we have decided to just strip her down from now on when we feed her...
