Love at First Bite

Now that Dane is 6 months old, it was time to try some solid food.  Well, I don't know that I would really call it "solid", per se.  We learned recently that until a baby has teeth, they don't have a certain enzyme in their saliva with which to digest carbohydrates, but that soft fruits and veggies are fine for them to have.  So, since little Dane has no teeth, we dove into his first taste of...sweet potatoes!At first he wasn't too sure.  After figuring out that Mommy wanted to put that long metal thing in his mouth, he took a bite, made a strange face, and then tried to eek out a smile, as if he was feigning delight.  But after a few more tries, he was grabbing my hand to put the spoon into his mouth.  Here is a before and after picture, and a video.Bon appetit!
