Eli gets his first bite...

They say that babies between 4 and 6 months can start "practicing" their eating skills with rice cereal. I decided to try this with Eli as he is becoming more and more interested in food and screamed the other day when we were eating dinner and wouldn't give him any of our food (we're so mean huh!). This is his first expereince with solid food...

As you can see, he was WAY more interested in the spoon that he was with the rice cereal, and proabably would have been just as happy had there been no food and I just gave him the spoon. But now after a few days of trying it, he really likes the rice cereal and is less interested in the spoon. Next week we will try green veggies... I'm sure that will be a more messy expereince!
