Yesterday, we gave Amelia her first taste of cereal, Matthew had been accusing me of depriving her since she is already 5 1/2 months old and hadn't yet had the privilege of anything more than milk. So, around 6pm, we sat her in her bumbo seat, complete with tray, dressed her in a bib (knowing that it was likely going to be a messy ordeal) and made up the cereal.
It was so funny when we first put the cereal in her mouth, she didn't know what to do with it, but after another couple of spoonfuls really got the hang of it and in fact enjoyed it very much (I could tell by the way she was grabbing my hand and putting the spoon in her mouth). After finishing the cereal, she drank an additional 6oz of formula (more than she normally drinks).
Of course we wanted to record this special event so here are some photo's of our growing girl with her 'got cereal' look.
"Mmm, Mmm this is pretty good mum"
"More, I want more..."
"Delicious!"

The girl wants her cereal! Look at her grabbing your hand. I love that first picture- so cute. Try adding some applesauce or making it with apple juice, she'll like it even more! I love the "cereal all over her face" look. She's so cute, she even looks adorable with food all over her face. And by the way, LOVE the purple bow!!
P.S. I am going to call you after Conference tomorrow (Sunday). I enjoyed talking to you yesterday :)
She gets cuter every time I check the blog - Wait until Grandpa Rawe breaks out the gummy sour worms with her!
