selma eats

selma has finally gotten the hang of eating solid foods. she has had green beans, peas, zucchini, squash, carrots, sweet potatoes, apples, pears, peaches, and prunes. and she seems to like them all. she didn't really care for baby cereal all that much, and since she was having a bit of a constipation problem, the nurse suggested we omit the cereal for a bit. selma doesn't seem to miss it. she does prefer fruits to vegetables, but she'll eat pretty much anything (so far).
and she LOVES puffs and cheerios. she can pick them up in her hand but can't get them to her mouth....they just stay in her palm all gummy and wet while we have to feed her other ones straight to her mouth.
now we're working hard on teaching her the sign for "more". she whines so loudly when she wants another bite of something, it's crazy how loud she can be. even greta and otto are trying to teach her the sign so that she can sign instead of whining and we can eat dinner in peace (somewhat)!!
she also LOVES these mesh bag things (in the photos) that you can put food in. she was going to TOWN on the pears today!! i put 3 slices of ripe pear in there and when she was done, it was completely empty!!
