Our son had was 13 mo. at adoption with 4 teeth. We brought Gerber baby food with us and also bought some at the grocery store there. They had strange flavors, like salmon and pumpkin, but he loved it. Gerber spaghetti was his favorite. He was also still on formula, so he had bottles between meals. He ate bananas, apple sauce, Gerber fruit puffs. For breakfast, we brought rice cereal that we mixed with his formula or apple juice. You can buy this there. We ended up going through two boxes. We took his meals with us everywhere we went. We didn't try to feed him table food in Russia, I was too nervous about choking and allergies. I just carried the jars, rice cereal, formula with me. My diaper bag was ALWAYS full!
