Avocados and ice cream anybody?

No, not together! They are Jackson's two latest foods, and he loved both of them! (For the record, Tom was the one who was naughty and gave him the last little stub of his ice cream cone - I would never do such a thing *wink*)

Here is Jackson just starting out with his avocado. It was pretty slippery so it kept popping out of his hands, but he didn't give up.


He kept waving his hands up and down, smacking the tray in between bites. He worked and worked at it until it was completely obliterated.


I got a side-shot, trying to get a good picture of his tongue but it didn't work. I never knew he had such a long tongue until he was trying to lick ice cream!


I had to include this picture because he was so excited about the ice cream that his feet were straight up in the air, and both his arms and legs were shaking (that's how we know he's truly excited).

Ahh he is so cute!! I like avocados and ice cream too. He's got good taste! We are just about to start our baby on solids and I can't wait until we are past the rice cereal phase and onto more interesting things.
