big girl food

Stella is officially off of formula! Yay! It is soooo easy to pour some organic milk from the fridge than to mix up that powdery mess... and I thought formula was easy! So that is done, next step- real food! Some of my friends with tinies around the same age have already had them on real food for awhile, but Stella was having nothing to do with it... to the point where if I put food up to her face she would shudder and cry! Well, we are taking baby steps. Today she ate banana, toast, and a little bit of egg, and for dinner she ate some cut up carrots and chicken!! It was her first 'big girl' meal. I guess she can't eat baby food forever, right?? I guess that's why they still sell applesauce and pudding for adults! Speaking of big kids, we went to see JUNO on Sunday and you would have thought that the 'big kids' were little kids in the arcade before the movie! The pink and blue guns were a really nice touch. P.S. Stella didn't make a peep the whole time! It was a miracle! I hope it lasts. I should knock on wood right now.....
