Addie Pearl's first food

(download)

Today we went to the pediatrician for Addie P's four month check up and Dr. Ball said we could begin to introduce some food! She told us to begin with some rice cereal. The first couple months eating is really more for developmental purposes than nutrition. Addie needs to learn the mechanics of eating and as you can see in the video, she has a lot to learn. It will take some time for her to learn which direction the food goes and how to swallow, etc. But because her little taste buds are so new the very bland rice makes her act as if we put lemons in her mouth. Pretty funny. Our little girl is growing!
