Kayla takes on Rice Cereal... and wins!

We decided to try to give Kayla cereal from a spoon for the 1st time tonight. She sits up all by herself in the highchair, is never satisfied after a full 7+ ounces, stares us down when we eat... so we thought we'd try. Most people and pediatrician's say wait until 4 months... and on New Years Day she will be 15 wks old... we won't do fruits or veggies until the 4 months but we are going to do cereal for the next month. We have been giving her a plastic spoon to play with for about 2 wks, she picks it up and try's to put it near her mouth (not really aiming)... its a chunky "take away" so its safe. She was so excited... not that she had ANY idea what was coming... At first she was like... "mmm whats this". Then she pushed it out alot with her toungue. Then we figured out that if you keep the spoon near her mouth and keep scooping up the stuff that comes out, she likes to lick and chew on the spoon. We could actually hear her swallowing the very soupy like cereal! We'd say it was a big success!



All ready!
