Jan 1: First solid food

We fed Tatiana her first food today.  We were waiting until she was 6 months old, and she is a few days shy.  She has been quite insistent about grabbing for my food and particularly my water glass.  She gets a little sick for a few days after her vaccine so I decided to start now.  In the morning I set up her highchair.  She became a little fussy, so I didn't investigate why the legs fell out when you lifted the chair.  When it was time to feed her, It took us awhile to get setup.  She was such a patient girl.  I swear she knew what was coming!  She sat there and swung her arms.  We mushed an organic banana with freshly pumped breast milk.  Since I do most of the feeding, I let Scotland give her the first bite.  She took right to it, and wanted to help shove the food in.  We also fed her a black-eyed pea, for luck.  After a few bites she became fussy.  I thought it was because she'd had enough of the new experience, but it turned out her diaper was soaked.
