Judging by the faces he made, I think it is safe to say that he did not enjoy it at first. However, we have tried it a few more times since and he is getting the whole eating idea. He opens his mouth for the spoon now and "chews" the food and swallows. For the most part.... Sometimes if you are talking to him or something, he will get this big smile before he swallows and all the food just sort of dribbles out of his mouth. It's pretty funny.
At the moment, the solids are just a sort of trial. I give them to him every once in a while (maybe, every two or three days) just to get him used to them and used to the idea of eating off a spoon. Once he is comfortable with that, sometime around the five or six month mark, we will start feeding him actual pureed foods. Now that will make for some interesting faces! Can't wait... :)
