Thanks everyone....

You know how BAD the rice cereal is? Even the dogs won't go near it LOL

One night when I was feeding Katherine, Mary Joyce was begging for the baby's cereal until I gave her a bite. Our 2 year old doesn't like it any more than your dogs do.

LOl that's so cute haha.

I added a touch of applesauce to her cereal and she seemed to like it much more. She has even already figured out that when the spoon comes to her mouth she has to open up

Sam does not seem to like rice cereal but is ok with oat cereal - mixed with apples just as you did.

Everything I've tried gets the worst looks but if she sees mail/newspaper/remotes anything like that on the floor they are in her mouth faster than I thought she could move. If rice cereal tastes like paper shouldn't she like it? I don't understand babies! Perhaps if I spread her food on the floor and act like she should not eat it she will happily eat it all.

I love to see the shudders she does. Can't mistake what she means.
I used to put a tiny bit of pure honey in the mix & my kids both loved it.

What funny pics and videos. Like everyone else stated, the shudders are so funny

I tried Quinn on cereal when she was about 6 months old and she hated it, every type of baby cereal she hated. I always mixed it with breast milk and I tried fancying it up with fruit and she was never interested. I just waited until she was about 7 months old and just started her on baby foods slowly, and she was fine with baby foods, just not cereal.

Now I will make oatmeal from Quaker rolled oats and put walnuts, a little soymilk, vanilla extract, raisins, cinnamon, and a cut up apple and add just a little brown sugar and she LOOOVES that stuff! So it's not all cereal she hates, she just hates the baby cereal

LOL Thanks everyone. yeah my little girl is NOT subtle hahaha.

She seems to be doing better now that I am adding in just a touch of applesauce though. She's even opening her mouth when the spoon comes to her.

She's not eating much but at least she is getting used to the process for when we do start fruits and veggies

I still make that face if someone tries to feed me lima beans. She's a cutie!
