First Food!


(This was the no-go rice cereal)
So even though we've heard rumors that babies shouldn't eat solid foods until they are at least six months, we decided to bend the rules a bit. How can you resist when you have an an adorable face opening her mouth every time she sees food, (clearly our love of food was inherited) or really anything that gets near her mouth for that matter. We started off with some rice cereal which she gobbled up and all was well. Yeah...right. She cried for quite a while afterwards and wouldn't settle down. We've now cut that out of her diet. They also make oatmeal cereal which we tried and that went over much better. Possibly because it doesn't expand as much as rice does in her stomach? We just bought her some Gerber banana food today and she ate the whole container in one sitting! I'm going to have to do some baby recipe research if she keeps up this appetite. 
Moral of the story is, our baby girl is now eating from a spoon!
