Mmmmmm...





























I truly believe that you shouldn't feed your baby anything that you wouldn't eat yourself. So, when we started Addison on rice cereal this past week, I whole heartedly gave it a go. MMMmmmmm...a little bland but not bad. Then I passed it on to Curtis to try. YEAH RIGHT!!! He wouldn't go anywhere near the stuff!! I reassured him that it wasn't a fruit or a vegetable. But it definitely was a no go.
So far Addison hasn't picked up her daddy's eating habits and had a lot of fun trying it. She likes to put the spoon in her mouth by herself and she is finding that playing with it is the best part!! She is slowly getting used to the taste and texture and eats more and more each day.
Tomorrow we move on to Barley cereal. I'm not sure I am as excited about trying this one but I am sure our little adventurer will "eat it up"!!

UPDATE!!

Well, Addison went in for her four month shots today and took them like a trooper. Although, I did pump her up with baby drugs beforehand...
The doctor commented that Addie was "long and slender". Not really sure where she gets that from!! She weighed in at 12.9lbs (only 1/2 lb gained) and 25 inches long (up from 23.6). The doctor didn't seem too concerned about the lack of weight gained because Addison is right on target for all her developmental stages. She did however give us the go ahead to start her on solids. That should make for some fun photos!!
