Hannah tries rice cereal for the first time today ***updated with pics and video

[sparks19]

LOL I will upload the pictures when I have a little more time... but the verdict... she doesn't like rice cereal at the moment lol.

I tried it with water and with formula and she made this gaggy face everytime it touched her tongue lol. BUT.. then I tried it... no wonder she hates it. it tastes like nothing... PAPER has more flavor lol.

This will definitely take time for her to get used to. We got some good shots of her and a little video so I will upload those tonight and post them ASAP.

haha, her face must have been priceless, and i can't wait to see the pics. Lydia *hated* cereal....I couldn't even mix it into fruits or veggies. But after she had the flu, I fed it to her because it was easy on her stomach, and now she loves it.

I think I will try mixing it with some pedialyte or a little gripe water to give it a little sweet kick and maybe she will be more into it.

Anyway without further ado... PICS in sequence

waiting to start

are you ready YET?

EWWW this is what I was waiting for?

OH you want to give me MORE?

Open wide

Sorry--I didn't see the post until too late. I think I tried formula the first time and water the second time. Neither one went over well. Now I use warm water, but I make it really thick. It still isn't her favorite, but she will eat it. I don't know that I'll buy her another box when this is done, though.

Looks like Belle likes to protect the baby!

It looks that way lol but really that is A) her spot on the couch... and B) her hoping she might get leftovers (although I doubt she would want them lol) Belle is the playmate and Beezer is the protector

That's ok... I tried it with just warm water first and then formula after she didn't like the first one. The box I have will probably get her through until she starts on fruits and veggies... we got it at BJ's and it was $2.50 for an 8 oz box of rice and an 8 oz box of oatmeal. so I can't complain lol.

Oh I loved the videos! The one with the doggies is very cute

Last week-end we just tried the very first spoon of veggies (carrots) with Valentine, as she staterd being very interested in the food I was eating. She did not really eat something, it was more to test the consistency, taste, etc. It will go better next time I think.

HAHA yeah that is probably my favourite too... she just looks like she's about to puke from the grossness hahaha.

I tried it today with some pedialyte and it wasn't anymore popular than it was yesterday. Still get the shudder everytime I put some in her mouth.

perhaps I will try some of the oatmeal stuff we have and see if that has a better flavor

Oh how cute!!

[Sirrahsim]

ahh what a doll! I love the little baby shivers that she does Austin has NEVER liked any kind of cereal He's 9 months now and still doesn't like to take anything off of a spoon. Tyler on the other hand LOVED any sort of baby food as long as we used the rice cereal or oatmeal cereal to thicken it up to about the texture of mashed potatoes.
