Rice Cereal

Tonight Tristan had his first experience with rice cereal! Okay, I'll admit it, this wasn't his first time with something other than a bottle. It actually started almost two months ago when Brian insisted he try his first piece of watermelon. Right before this, at his four month appointment, the doctor had casually mentioned that he could begin trying mashed fruit - and that was enough for Brian to quickly find some fruit for him to try. He absolutely LOVED the watermelon and couldn't get enough of it! After that though, we waited another month before giving him more fruit (and when I say we, I mean I wanted to wait until he was 6 months old, Brian wanted to immediately start him on steak and potatoes :). Brian could hardly wait much longer than that and gave him a few other baby foods to try - all were not documented. So tonight, we decided to take pics of his first rice cereal experience, since this is the first night of our new routine - while we're eating dinner, he'll be eating his rice cereal. We also got to try out his new bowl, spoons and Bumbo. My boy is growing up :(
