Just wanted to share my excitement, Gabe had his first proper finger foods today, he shared my toast with me :) He only had a finger of toast but he ate half / a third of it (which I was quite impressed with especially as he doesn't have teeth) and prob would have had more but he squished it up and dropped it on the floor, lol.

well done gabe!!!! teeth don't seem to matter, chloe puts her's between her gums and yanks to break bits off! she loves her toast and also had some this morning. don't expect a lot to get eaten, like you say most ends up so mushy or on the floor!!!

no stopping him now!!

Go Gabe!
Charlotte was like that when she first had toast, now she loves it as part of her brekkie. She eats half a slice cut into fingers, and sometimes the whole finger goes in her mouth!!!
I would try him with a little sarnie with the bread quished together so it's flatter. Dairylea is good to put in it - though it can get very messy - lol!

I can imagine it would! Lol...I might try that next. Or a bit of banana as he likes that.
It's so cute watching them eat 'proper' food and not mush, lol.

Last time I gave Charlotte banana she squished it together and rubbed it in her hair. And as she has lots of her it was very messy.
I gave her some mince pie last week too - and she gagged and threw up. Wont be trying that again.

Weaning's so much fun isn't it i had broccoli spat on me the other day! Hmm, thats a good point about banana though, it could get quite mushy. I might get some of those organix things and try them

Yeah the Organix finger food range is very good xx
If you give him the rice cakes be careful as bits can break off and make them choke.
