"He no rike it"

That torturous phase in babydome has reappeared in our house. It is now time for...

DUN DUN DUUUNNNN....

Solid foods.

I don't like the baby food stage. Never have. It's way too time consuming, what with the 3 days of this yuck before introducing a new yuck. Plus, they should make it with stain remover mixed right in the little jar. Seriously, that stuff doesn't wash out of anything. The goop is so gross I get all kinds of mommy guilt over shoving it into my little one's mouth. But, here we go again anyway.

I give you "Holden's first solids"!

Part 1 - The Excitement

Part 2 - The Confusion

Part 3 - The Realization

Part 4 - The Trauma

Part 5 - The Return

Part 6 - The Crying.

Part 7 and 8 - The Refusal

Hudson was my audience for this show. He sat next to me and with every gag and retch that Holden presented to us, Hudson got angrier and angrier. "Mommy! He no rike it!" he would say each time I put the spoon back to his brother's lips. I no rike it either. Solids are gross and stain everything, and mean that my baby is getting bigger. I no rike it one little bit.
