Rice What?!?

Caitlin tried rice cereal for the first time on her 5-month birthday.  We watered the rice cereal down with formula until it was almost completely liquefied per the advice of some experienced mommies (Thanks Kelli & Lacey!).  Caitlin did good with the rice cereal at first…I think it was because it was something new and she was trying to figure out what was going on.  We were filming the beginning of the experience, so she is happy on the video, but by the time we got to the digital camera, she decided rice cereal was not her thing. 

Since then, we’ve continued rice cereal every other night before her last bottle.  I think she is really starting to get the hang of it!  The consistency a bit more like oatmeal and she will actually eat it.  I put a small amount on the spoon and say “open” and she opens her little mouth (so smart!).  I swear she is teething too (no actual teeth have cut yet), but she loves to chew on everything, especially her new rubber covered spoons.  We are going to keep at it.  I’m looking forward to introducing her to all sorts of new foods in the coming months!
