I succumbed to the box

Last week, I tried my hand at making homemade (organic, of course) rice cereal for Lee's first food.  I either did not follow the recipe correctly, or rice is just too sticky, or I used the wrong grain, but it was clearly beyond Lee's first-time eating abilities.  While he seemed to enjoy the taste of the cereal, and playing with the cereal, he did not actually enjoy eating the cereal.  This week, I gave in, bought a box of flakes, and he is taking it nicely.  He strangely does not have a huge appetite yet, but he takes a killer nap after lunch!

And, fear not; I am not totally discouraged with my baby food-making attempt.  Next week, I will be trying my hand at applesauce and some veggies.  We should get some more fun pictures from those!

I think he looks just like Bryan too! And it's not the food on his chin either.
Much love, KK

So exciting...another step in his eating ....at the table now !
LOVE the pics...a high chair is awaiting him here too. Got a booster for the big cousin Brant.
Let me know if I can help you get ready for Memphis. I am sure KK is counting the hours!
Love,

I am looking at these at 4:53 AM (couldn't sleep) and they really woke me up. If that is not the cutest thing - he is going to love eating, I can tell.I too, agree that he looks like his Daddy. He is just beautiful.

love to all from Nanny
