FOOD!

So, I have some catching up to do. We did a lot of things Mike's last week at home. One of the most momentous occasions would be the introduction of solid food to the babies.

For the past 6 months the twins have been fed solely breastmilk. After 6 months, our plan was to wait for them to show signs that they are interested in eating. Right on cue, while we were home they started really watching us while we would eat and even reach out to grab our food. So once we got back home we decided to try some bananas and see how it goes.

Here they are checking out their bananas and here are the first bites...

..thinking about it

...and wanting NOTHING to do with it

so...after all that build-up....Round One for the banana was a FAIL.

I really didn't expect much, i am quite aware that they need to get used to the texture, but man the reaction to the banana was brutal. Holden actually gagged each time it was in his mouth--which was pitiful, funny and gross all at the same time. Nora on the other hand did not at all understand the importance of opening her mouth in order to eat. So I'll leave you with this video and hopefully will post Round 2 tomorrow!
