first food

Tikvah has officially started solids. Her first food--oatmeal. Sorry, no pictures yet. Its kinda hard to take a picture if she's in your lap and one hand has her, and the other hand has the oatmeal! She seems to like it pretty well. The speech therapist came by today to help us try to figure out cup feeding, and gave us a few tricks we can use with her, like putting cheerios in the sides of her mouth, and pressing the spoon on her tongue, and getting a vibrating teether to help her mouth sensitivity. Yikes! Tikvah has developed a habit of tongue thrust even though the reflex is gone, so we have to train her out of it.
