This is how much Kate hates the idea of solid foods: (the angle is not great, but hopefully you can see that she's bending so far backwards to avoid the spoon that she is almost coming out of the Bumbo seat)

The story is this: For the last month and a half, Kate has had to deal with me forcing things in her face because of an ongoing snotty nose and other issues. I'm talking about Little Noses saline spray up her nose, the aspirator up her nose, the reflux medicine, 10 days worth of antibiotic for fluid in the ears, etc. So now anytime I go near her face with something in my hand, she literally bends over backwards to get away from it (sometimes even if it's a pacifier!). I don't blame her.
