Benjamin is trying solid food


I finally have given in and let Benjamin test some food. He has been very interested in watching us eat for a few weeks now, he is always reaching for our food. I really wanted to exclusively breastfeed him until 6 or 7 months old since this is what is suggested for the prevention of allergies. However, Will keeps sneeking him bits of food (like grapes?) and the other day I caught Lily feeding him her yogurt, she told me "he asked for it" so I figured it is time to let him experiment with solid foods. I mashed up a little banana and put it on the spoon. He grabbed the spoon from my hand and put it directly into his mouth. He ate half of a banana before he lost interest. I think he is going to be a good eater!

Hi Wellborn family. I am Anthony Kipsang from Kenya and I knew William while he came to our country. Since then he has been my great friend and he has a wonderful and lovely family.
