On Valentine’s Day, two days before she turned 6 months old, we gave her some rice cereal. She absolutely loved it and we had to shovel it in her mouth as fast as we could or she would cry out in protest!
It was so funny because we would fill the spoon with cereal and start moving it toward her mouth and she would flap her hands, then reach out and grab the spoon with both hands and shove it in her mouth. Then it took another minute or two to wrestle the spoon away from her in order to repeat the process all over again.
Ben and I could not stop laughing at how funny it was to watch her gobble the cereal down! What is she going to do when there are more food options available to her! We are in big trouble!
We waited until she was 6 months old as per our pediatrician’s request. He said it would help keep away food allergies. It was definitely time to start her on solids because she would sit and stare longingly at Ben and I as we ate our dinner. She watched our every little move and now knows what to do with silverware and cups. It is hilarious to watch her drink water, she laps it up with her little tongue just like a kitty!
