More friends, nice weather, swimming, and first foods

More play dates for Emma - she has more friends than we do. (See picture below) The warm weather recently has really been great. We have had the chance to take Emma outside a lot for walks - which she enjoys. We also took Emma swimming at a hotel as we celebrated Heather's parents anniversary. It was fun to hang out and swim with everyone, and all the kids loved it. We have been trying some solid foods with Emma which she likes sometimes, but other times is not too interested in. The first food we tried with her was hard boiled egg yolk, then we tried avocado, then we gave her peas, then sweet potato, and then a raw carrot to chew on. She seemed to like the peas and sweet potato the most. She also enjoyed chewing on the cold raw carrot - probably because it felt good on her gums and new teeth. I guess she will eventually start enjoying solid foods - everyone does as some time in their life so what's the rush.

She sure liked playing with the avocado. I think she ate a little.

It was fun to play with Emma a little bit this past Sunday. She is such a delightful little girl! :-)

Kids don't usually like yolks. Have you tried scrambled eggs? Priya ate those for a long time before she stopped liking them, and went to hard boiled eggs.

Babies are not supposed to eat the white part of an egg before they are one year old due to the difficulty of digestion. The egg yolk has a bunch of nutrients good for baby development - especially brain development.

Ahhh.. that rings a bell. That's right. Priya didn't do eggs till she was a year.
