Maddox's first cereal experience












Well...I first have to say I was a little off on Maddox being 5 months. She isn't quite there yet....of course not until the 16th. Having a little trouble keeping up on weeks/months. We'll have another celebration in a few days. Maddox had her first taste of cereal yesterday and she did really well. In fact there were times that I couldn't get it to her FAST enough. She would open that little mouth like a bird....hurry mom...hurry mom. And yes the spoon does look a lot like a toothbrush but rest assured it really is a spoon! The high chair she sits in has enough straps that I think it looks like she could take off in it. It has all these cool functions that raise it up and down and recline it....and it just attaches to a regular chair so we can bring it with us when we go to Grandpa and Grandma's house. A lot of the cereal came back out of her mouth, just not quite coordinated yet with the tongue, but I think a lot went down too. We had a great audience for her first cereal. Grandma and Grandpa Knowles and Great Grandma Reta came over from Washington to visit and watch how she did with the cereal. It was very fun.....luckily Grandpa had brought a Valentine's Day bib. I hadn't even thought of a bib?? Thanks for saving the clothes Grandpa. We also celebrated Grandma Knowles' birthday. Grandpa tried to give Maddox a taste of the birthday cake icing but she wouldn't have it. She gave him the funniest look, like ' I know I'm not supposed to have that...what are you doing?'. Not taking icing??? My kid?? Did I bring the wrong baby home from the hospital?? I'm sure she'll be happy to have that icing in several more months on her birthday. Enjoy the SQUEALING video. She is really finding her voice.
