Rice Cereal!

This was supposed to be up yesterday. But I was distracted by shiny things. And pizza.

Katherine had her 4-month check-up on Wednesday. She's currently 15lb 10oz (95th percentile), 26 inches (off the chart) and 16.4 inches on the size of her noggin (65th percentile). So, because she's ahead of the curve, Dr. Witte says we can start her on rice cereal. Word. This should be fun.

So here we are, in the chair, ready for something to eat, not really sure what's going on. This encounter with the chair was much better than earlier in the week where we just tried to "get her used to it." It did not go well. This time was much better.




So here's Mom's second shovel of rice cereal (Dad was too slow on the camera and missed the first). You can see this is going swimmingly.

Oh, and who calls that stuff "cereal". It's more like "slightly less thick formula." I was thinking we'd be giving her some oatmeal or something good like that, not liquidy paste.



Random puppy picture!
And, yes, he's just laying there thinking "What have I gotten myself into!?!?"









After a few tries, Mom has given up. Back to the bottle.











And back to the couch. A valiant first effort, but unsuccessful. We'll try again tomorrow.
