Amelia has been sucking on carrott sticks, I've also been giving her lots of different fruit and veg purees - so cute!!!
Were doing a mixture he has purees and finger food, hes not impressed at the minute but we will carrying....he does love strawberries though, gummed it to death

Max is not enjoying the purees at all, im just putting then to his lips-don't want to force it. He sucked a piece of apple for ages yesterday and had a good chop on a piece of pineapple too so not all hope is lost!xx
Sorry, just back from a trip to visit some friends overnight. ;\)
He did brilliantly. He's really good at picking up courgette and cucumber. I tend to have to hand him most things (the butternut squash that he had that day works really well for this) but I do hold really squishy stuff like banana and avocado and he gums bits off.
Woomummy, we are actually doing a few pur????es as well. He wolfed down a jar of Beech-Nut pear tonight (lazy mummy couldn't be bothered to cook anything after we got home *blush*) and I'm going to pur????e some peas tomorrow. He loves holding his spoon, though, and actually fed himself some avocado off one this evening, so we are working on that angle as well.
Great fun, but very messy!
Hope he enjoys the peas. x
