Finger foods: Your nine month old may be interested in finger foods at this point. Foods that you eat are often more interesting than jar foods. Avoid chocolate and egg white until a year. Appetite will vary day to day as growth slows a little. Continue massaging the gums with a soft cloth or brush as teeth erupt. Don't let baby fall asleep with a bottle or tooth decay will soon follow.

Everything: Once babies are this age, they are only limited by their ability to chew. If it's small enough pieces so they will not choke, they can eat it. Jarred food is only good because of the convenience of the jar. Put whatever you happen to be eating in a food processor and give it to the baby! in the interest of good nutrition, though, avoid added sugars and fruit juices. These are bad nutrition.
