The first bite

We introduced rice cereal to Eli this past weekend. It was pretty funny.






I think he enjoyed it! He was so cute, the way he would open his mouth when the spoon got close. Good job little man! He's growing so fast, I can't believe it!

Mandy- yes, he does like it! We started him cause I noticed that when ever we ate, he watched INTENTLY. He also would open his mouth anytime a finger or burp cloth or anything got near his mouth. Not every bite is a success, but he's getting it. I think he tends to like to spoon more than the rice cereal :)

Ha-- exactly like Jonathan! Our little pics of the first few bites even look the same. Our boy did the same thing, watching us eat, and wanting to hold a spoon. He was very excited to try the cereal, and was a great eater from there on out. Next week you can try out the squash! :)
