Last night Christian had his very first bowl of rice cereal. (When I say "bowl," I mean 2-3 tablespoons.) His pediatrician said that he would be ready for solids when he began to show interest in food at the table and/or when he no longer could stay full after nursing. Christian has been studying food at the table for about a month now...and always seems extremely eager to eat. Plus, he pretty much always has his mouth open and is playing with his tongue. I bought some rice cereal 2 weeks ago and some small spoons a couple of days ago...but kept putting off the solid food thing. It just seems like our baby is growing so fast that *I* secretly wasn't ready for him to begin eating solids. His little growing body obviously has other plans. He LOVED his rice cereal, opened his mouth wide, and probably ate 3/4 of the cereal. We will continue working on eating from a spoon and then will eventually move on to other tasty foods.
