Dr. Eisenhut (Finn's doctor) recommended that we start giving Finn cereal in the mornings. He said that since he is larger than most babies his age, he is probably ready to start cereal a little early. We are going to give him rice cereal, then oatmeal, then wheat cereal, then barley cereal (I didn't even know they made that many kinds of baby cereal; but apparently they do). Dr. Eisenhut wants us to try each kind for a week, then move to veggies. At first, Finn didn't understand how to swallow the rice cereal, but he got better at it after several bites. I don't think he cared for the taste of it though...
He got frustrated with it towards the end. I think I let him get a little too hungry before I tried this. He just wanted to nurse. He looks like he is flipping the bird at us in the last picture. But have you ever tasted rice cereal? I did; and it is gross. I think I would be mad if someone made me eat it too.
