I may have to do two posts a day this week to show you all the cool things Evie Lu has been up to in the last couple of days. I'll start with the most recent because this evening Evangeline had something other than just breastmilk to eat.
Dr. Ann recommended we start some rice cereal at least two weeks prior to Evangeline's six month check up. It was with more than a little trepidation that we proceeded to try it tonight. I'm not sure exactly what I was expecting Evie Lu to do with this new taste sensation, but we made it a media event. Kaia fed her several spoonfuls first as I recorded with the video camera and then it was my turn to feed her as Kaia took still photos.
This was not an entirely happy experience for Evie Lu and she seemed to spit most of the rice cereal back immediately. There were quite a few sour faces, but then she brightened up as you see in the pictures above and below.
I'd say her first feeding was a great success. Perhaps not the most nutritionally satisfying, but she accepted the spoon and we finally are using bibs for their intended purpose!
