Success with eating!

It took for J to officially turn 7 months for her to accept that this eating from a spoon thing was not going away, and that she might as well just enjoy it. Jocelyn polished off her first ounce of food yesterday- pears, followed by 2 more ounces today. Even though this has nothing to do with me at all, I have to admit, I feel accomplished. This has been a 6-7 week process, with J sealing up her lips or just spitting out everything that she has just eaten. I knew she wasn't going to go off to college still only eating from a bottle (although, I have to admit, the image makes me laugh), it still felt like something that "all the other kids were already doing; without any problems!" and J just didn't have any interest in it. Each in their own time.....
