We've begun the process of introducing Della to solid foods. Luckily she has a fantastic gag reflex so there haven't been any real scary moments (nana would disagree with that statement). Generally, Della seems to enjoy most foods with the exception of peas which is understandable as those were the only food she had an early reaction to in the form of a skin rash. She no longer seems to be allergic but she turns away from peas in general. She loves squash, pasta, lentils, and popsicles (which aren't really a food group unless you belong to this family).
In our house we tend to eat a lot of seasonal fruits and veggies which in the Fall includes bright red beets. Beets are handy when tracking the extend of baby food smearing as seen below. To assist with cleanup of Della's mealtime mess we've hired Mr. Poppi who does seem to enjoy his job.
**Several of these pics are camera phone so please excuse the fuzziness.
