This boy likes to eat!!!

This evening was our first real go at giving Reid solid food... carrots and rice cereal.  Sounds yummy, huh?  Ha!  Well...THIS BOY CAN EAT!!!  He loved it!  (Which makes mommy & daddy's lives a little bit easier!)  He ate the entire serving of carrots and most of the rice cereal.  He wasn't too crazy about the rice cereal, but didn't mind when I mixed it with the carrots.  I couldn't shovel it in fast enough... here are some cute pics...





Other fun happenings... Reid's toy basket is one of his new favorite places to play =)




I may be just *a little* biased...but we think he's the greatest kid that there ever has been! =)

Hehe.. you just think it will make your lives easier. Just think if he eats that well now how much he will be eating as a teen!
BTW~ None of mine would do the rice cereal. But they didn't mind the oatmeal. You might try that.

You know, you should only do ONE new food at a time so you can make sure there are no reactions. If he had a break out, you wouldn't have known if it was the rice cereal or the carrots.

Thank you to Justwantingtobehelpful! Yes...I am aware of introducing one food at a time. We've been giving Reid rice cereal on and off for the last several weeks, so we felt safe in introducing the carrots. =)
