Round 2 with Food

We tried rice cereal with Jay at 4 months, and while he ate it fine, the reaction each night we tried it was horrid. We'd never heard of a baby having stomach issues after rice cereal, but after three different days of trying and the same result, we called ped clinic and the nurse said wait a month.

We saw the doctor today while K was getting checked out for a random fever, and she gave us the go ahead for food. Big sister picked sweet potatoes first, and she was SO excited he was going to be eating some big kid food! :)

He wasn't so sure at first...

But loved it by the end and finished off the whole jar! Hopefully we'll have a better reaction to food than cereal!

Big sis was very interested in tasting them also. We treated this like most of the other baby things and let her have a go at it. She didn't finish her spoonful. :) This approach has worked for most of Jay's baby things -- we haven't made a fuss about her getting in his car/bouncy seat, bumbo, etc., and she realizes pretty fast that they aren't that fun. Still waiting on her to realize the exersaucer isn't that exciting. Hilarious to see her legs all curled up underneath her in it!
