Rice Cereal

Owen has taken nicely to eating solid foods -- which up until now has been iron-fortified rice cereal. He opens his mouth right when he sees the spoon and gets frustrated if it isn't in his mouth within 2 seconds. And when he sees us eating, he studies us and seems to know he's being left out of something.

He likes to get his hands involved, which isn't very helpful. Here you can see me trying to fend off Owen's hands while getting the spoon into his mouth.



Sometimes Owen wins the hands battle...



He'll be 6 months on Saturday and will then be officially cleared (by the American Academy of Pediatrics) to start in on some new solid foods -- like bananas, oatmeal and avocado.
