Hi dear, it's good your child is active. By the 9 month of age you should start giving small quantities of soft meals like khichdi, puree vegetables, mashed chapati with milk or dal, you can add ghee it's good. Give fruits like Banana, papaya, apple, muskmelon.
Include milk and milk products too.
You are giving is correct just make sure you increase quantity gradually and also frequency .
