Open Wide

We started Carter on solids today. I wanted to wait until he was 6 months to start and he has been so interested in what we are eating. Even though he had shots today and was a bit tired he was reaching for my dinner so I figured now was as good a time as ever to try a little rice cereal. DSCN5665 He just looks so excited doesn’t he….DSCN5666 He opened wide for the first bite and handled it quite well. Poor baby was so tired, but wanted to eat like everyone else. DSCN5667 He lasted about 5 good spoonfuls and swallowed well. After a while he started gagging so I figured he was done. I wish I got more pictures, but Bry was doing the video camera while I tried to snap a few shots while feeding. What a good boy he is!!!

**I thought seeing Carter eat would make Andrew want to eat, but it didn’t work so well. Maybe it will eventually!**

So cute! By the way...
Emma doesn't eat either. I swear there have been days I wonder how she is alive.

Carter is such a good boy! We tried to feed Henry solids-I'll try to post the video- and it looks like a video out of Guantanamo Bay the way he's acting!
