First Food

After going to the doc for Paige's 4 month check- the doc thought it was a good idea to start giving her some baby cereal - or try to -- hahah!

So after a couple of weeks- on March 11, 2013, I finally gave in and made up some cereal--

I mixed the cereal with some boob milk- to try to make it taste like something similar to what she usually eats-- just plain old boobs!!

Porter was curious- as to what I was doing- I told him I was making Paige some oatmeal-- he wanted to taste it-- I gave hima big ole spoon full- his first reaction (knee jerk) was yumm- then it hit him- he said- that is not yumm- that is gross.



Well needless to say- Paige thought the same thing- gross@!!

As you can see- she started pretty well propped up and as she fought me more and more- she ended up basically laying down - I gave up - and quit- gave her some boob - and she went to sleep!!

I've tried a couple more times- and she hates is just the same-! I gave her a bite of Porter's oatmeal the other day - and she liked that- didn't spit it out and scream at me!!

Any tips on how to get babies to eat that nasty cereal?-- I've tried putting applesauce in it- she didn't love that?

Chet thinks (and i agree) she is just not ready for it- !

But she is waking up in the night more (more than I want to get up) so i think she's needing more- ?

Or maybe it is just her- as Jodi and Blaine explain it-- "you feel like you have to talk her into everything!" heheh-- that is it-- talking her into trying something new!
