So happy, I'm crying. Baby finally ate

This may sound dumb to some but I'm so happy I'm literally tearing up. My baby is Almost 9 months old and we've had the toughest time introducing solids. We've tried purées and BLW and she is just nottt interested. The only things she liked were bananas, baby cereal and more recently eggs.

It's been such a tough past few months. Been trying so many different things. Homemade, store bought. Anything to encourage her interest in food. Making her laugh, hoping she'd open wide enough to sneak a spoonful in.

Today I made a chicken soup/stew with chicken, carrots, onions, potatoes and some herbs. And I can't believe she actually voluntarily opened her mouth and even fed herself! She liked it!
