There’s nothing quite like the face a baby makes when they taste lemon for the first time. Or broccoli. Or anything with texture. Weaning is a milestone full of memorable moments.
What to Document
- First taste: The very first spoonful of solid food. The expression is priceless.
- First finger food: Usually involving more food on the floor than in the mouth.
- Face reactions: New flavours produce incredible facial expressions.
- The mess: Document the spaghetti-in-hair moments. They’re the ones you’ll laugh about for years.
Keepsake Ideas
- Food journal: Record every new food and their reaction. “Sweet potato: loved it. Peas: thrown on floor.”
- Photo grid: First taste of 9 different foods in a 3x3 grid. Frame it.
- Messy mat photo: The splat mat after a self-feeding session is genuinely artistic. Photograph it and call it modern art.
