Banana was a no no...lets try avocado!

I was really disappointed that Zachary didn't enjoy the banana, I figured I had read the signs wrong and maybe he wasn't ready.  I decided that I would try avocado, then some rice cereal and if both of those failed I would take a few weeks off and try again. 
I went to the grocery store today and picked up an avocado and a container of rice cereal...ahhh, the grocery store...it took everything in me to not shop..."Lindsay you don't have a kitchen"! 
Zachary slept a long time today...yeah...strange...so I didn't get to try it until 8:00 at night...mistake?  We will see in the morning.  Zack was happy and playful, he had eaten 8 ounces an hour before so the situation was about as perfect as it can get. 
I mashed some avocado with some breast milk

And how did Zack feel about it?


I gave him his own fork because he kept grabbing my spoon, but I had to take it away because he shoved it way back to his throat. 


He couldn't get enough of it!  He would even grab my hand if I wasn't scooping it fast enough...maybe it was the spoon...maybe it was the avocado.  Either way I haven't totally given up on banana. 

Oh and just for a little laugh...
He is getting better at sitting up every day!

sometimes he gets too excited

or distracted and well...
