{solids}

OK so for the peanut gallery, we don't know when we'll start or what we'll start with.  They're OUR children and we'll start feeding solids (by the book) when we feel they're ready.  You do what works for you, we'll do what works for us and we'll all be happy :)  Now that we have that out of the way...

Our high chairs came! (Sans trays)

We got Fisher Price Space Savers.  We didn't see the point in having a dining room table, 4 chairs AND two high chairs.  This works well.  We can eat at the table and each feed a baby-SCORE!  

Here's the tentative solids plan.  In the next couple weeks (maybe Monday, maybe a couple weeks from now) we're starting to introduce FOOD.  We're unsure if we'll start with organic whole wheat cereal or sweet potatoes/avocados.  I hear that cereal just constipates babies and there isn't much nutritional value.  We're thinking sweet potatoes are the way to go.  We'll see.  Either way, Coach and Fancy are PUMPED!

So excited!  Note: daddy put two different socks on today.  Yes, it was on purpose.

Oh dimples how I love thee!
  
They're so stinking cute!  They're showing signs that solids are the way to go in the very near future.  Great head/neck control, doing well sitting (though not yet unassisted), they watch us eat, they chew on their hands constantly, they mimic our mouths when we eat, they are always ravenously hungry, etc.  

Wish us luck!
