Rice Cereal

Probably shouldn't start rice cereal when someone is this upset!

First bite




He doesn't look too impressed with his first solid food



We were given the go ahead to start rice cereal at the doctor so we went straight to Walgreen's and got some! I was so excited to try this out to see if it would help Reese sleep for longer periods at night. He is sleeping anywhere between 4-6 hours and the doctor says by his 6 month visit we should be getting 8 straight hours out of him - fingers crossed!
The first time with rice cereal was definitely not as I expected but that was our fault! I waited until Reese was too hungry and he just didn't have the patience to be spoon fed. I won't say he didn't like it - he just wanted his food right then and he was not in the mood to work for it! John kept telling me to only try a few ounces of milk with the cereal and see how he does but I was so sure he would just scarf down 5 ounces of it! Not so much - he maybe took 2-3 bites of the milk/cereal and probably got none of it down! We will try again tonight!
