Ally had her first taste of rice cereal on Saturday night and she loved it! We mixed 1 tablespoon of the rice cereal with 3 tablespoons of milk so it was very runny for her first attempt. We assumed she either would spit it all out or just refuse to try it but we just couldn't get it in fast enough. She loved using the spoon and most of the cereal actually ended up in her mouth. She still got a fair share on her face, hands, bib, etc... but not nearly the mess I expected and clean up was pretty easy. She really enjoys sitting at the table and wants to put the spoon in her mouth by herself, even more last night when we did it again. This time I made it a little less runny and she still did very well. Our plan is to stick to the cereal once a day at dinner time for a while then introduce new foods little by little to work for more variety and frequency. So far she is doing great!
