They're GRRRRRRReat!

Well it wasn't Frosted Flakes, but Hayley got her first bites of rice cereal today. Our Pediatrician suggests starting cereal between 4-6 months and I'd tried to hold off as long as I could but I just finally got tired of the nagging feeling that my little girl was hungry. I feel even worse about her being so hungry after seeing the way she responded to cereal. After about three bites she figured out exactly how this eating thing is done and couldn't get enough. We started off with just a teaspoon and ended up giving her 2 more teaspoons. She was not happy that we cut her off after that, but we felt it was best to see how she responded to this small dose first. By the second bowl of cereal she would start shaking with excitement when she saw the spoon coming towards her mouth! She'd even wipe her mouth with her bib after each bite! Talk about a southern lady! :) Below is some video of her first few bites.






Hayley was not happy when the cereal was gone. Here's an "after" picture as she was fussing for more!



I finally got a little bit of video of Hayley laughing.
