Will roll for spoon

Some dogs do tricks to get snacks. Homeless people say they will work for food. My Etta decided to do her first back-to-tummy roll in order to grab a spoon. Think she is trying to give me a hint that she is ready for food? I was going to wait until her half birthday. My resolve is wavering.

The other day at Safeway a few people commented on Etta's rosy chubby cheeks. Then an oddly dressed lady started engaging me in conversation. When she learned that Etta was 5 months old, she assumed I was giving her food already. When I said that I was waiting until she was 6 months, the lady tried to educate me on how "they" are now saying that you can start giving babies food at 4 months. Maybe you can. But does that mean it is best? I say breast is best! As you can see from this picture, she is clearly wasting away & in desperate need of more nutrition than my milk can offer!
