Here in the Turtle house we are practicing baby led solids, what a fun adventure it's been!  TJ's first food was sweet potatoes and that first night he did a lot of playing.  He's always been a big observer, and once I handed him a spoon and he accidentally got some sweet potato in his mouth he was sold!

Here are some of our adventures:
