We just have not gotten around to starting Katherine on food yet. We finally decided we would try to night. During supper I gave Katherine a spoon to see what she would do with it. She immediately put it in her mouth so we thought it was the perfect time to see what she would think of rice cereal. We made it fairly warm and a medium texture since she is not accustomed to anything besides milk. She did so good! She seemed to like it although more ended up on her face and bib than in her mouth. I could not hardly get in her mouth because she kept chewing on her fingers. That girl's fingers must taste like candy the way she chews on them all the time!
The plan is to do cereal for another 1-2 weeks and then move on to the orange veggies. It is awful, but it is hard to find time to start new things with her. We would rather do it on the weekends in case she has a reaction to it. We will try to squeeze some cereal feedings in this week at night though. We were glad her first experience with food went so well!
