First Solid Food?

Mario and I were having dinner Sunday night and were enjoying some delicous hummus. He asked when Joey can start eating solids and I said around now (between 4-6 months most parents choose to introduce rice cereal). I was thinking I'd wait a bit because there's no super rush. Well, Joey was looking like he wanted to eat everything I was eating and just for fun, we thought we'd give him some bread to mush on. He really loved it and got sad when we took it away. I don't think he actually consumed anything, but he seemed to like it. Turns out he was just really tired and wanted to suck on something, but it was fun to try it out.
Today we had Kristin and Little Pete over for dinner. The boys seemed to play a little better today. Mario was slightly less aggressive and Pete is good at standing his own ground if he wants something. Pete is very interested in Joey, who he calls Jo Jo. He likes to point out his eyes, but we thought it was safer if he held Joey's hand instead. Joey likes Pete a lot too!
