Hey Mahathi, this is how I do it

Slightly roast rice and moong dal (you can add just a little bit of tuvar dal too after your baby gets used to rice+moong)
add lots of water and pressure cook it.
Mash it well (or grind) and you can add just a little bit of ghee to it and feed it...
YOu can add carrots, spinach and other vegetables to this and cook together like you do Kichidi.

About Whole milk - doctors in the US recommend not introducing it till the babies are atleast a year old but in India, some doctors suggest feeding babies diluted cow's milk after they are 9 months old.

Good luck
