Not quite ready for solids...

Our first adventure attempting to get Ethan to eat solids...carrots that is. When thinking about it, I don't even like cooked carrots, so why would I expect my son to like them? Well, I left the mimicking up to Brad. Brad would say "Ethan, watch, mmmm....yummy" and would take a bite of the carrots. Ethan staring at dad as dad exaggerates smacking his lips together, thinking this guy is crazy...yet it is so hard to resist moving my lips like his. Slowly Ethan began to mimic dad, but when it came time to swallow, there was a gag, cough, choke, whine, face scrunch, crumpled eyebrows, teary red eyes instead and carrots spit everywhere! Honestly, it's just carrots!


Trust me, all of the carrots that I fed him ended up on his face or his bib. I also attempted to take his clothes off before he got them carroty too, but in the end, I just had to say, "Oh well"! So here is Ethan, half dressed, a carrot mess and not impressed!

Looks posed doesn't it?! What at look! Really, I would love to know what is he thinking?!
