He started by tasting soft food in a net feeder. He loved the taste of bananas and avocados.
Later, we tried a little rice cereal, and then some single food purees such as applesauce, peas, pears and prunes.
Now, Jackson eats three meals a day, and sometimes an afternoon snack of yogurt. Noname and Grandaddy taught him how to smack his lips when he's hungry.
Lately, I've been showing him how to drink from a cup. Sometimes he does it all by himself!
At lunch today he tried a soft baby rusk for the first time. It was mostly a success--he knew how to chew, and seemed to love it a lot.
Love,
Jackson's Mama
Addendum: at supper tonight, Jackson decided he wanted to feed himself!

Hey, I don't blame Jackson. It goes down a lot faster when you feed yourself.
That boy just keeps on growing.
