Tonight we decided to try cereal for the first time. The girls have been watching us eat, opening their mouths, and our pediatrician gave us the go ahead. We just thought that they were ready for food. We put bibs on the girls, strapped them in their highchairs and braced ourselves for the experience.

The girls were not sure about the spoon at first and kept trying to suck on it. They would also stick their tongues out once the cereal was in their mouth, pushing the food out all over their chin. Eventually they got the hang of eating and enjoyed eating the cereal.

Payton got very distracted watching her daddy with the camera and was very hard to feed with her head turned toward him. Once he put down the camera she did a great job eating.




McKinley kept putting her hands in her mouth. She was a big mess! Once I got her hands pinned down she did a great job eating.




The after pictures! They ate about 3 ounces of formula mixed with rice cereal.



The girls really liked the rice cereal and got the hang of eating faster than I expected.
