in the meantime, here's part 2 of my eating rant. i wasn't sure about starting rice cereal since gabe's got a bit of a lingering cough from vegas, plus the fact that his sleep is totally messed up right now. but, our day got totally screwed up and chris ended up staying home from work and my parents were over for an early dinner. so 9 days shy of his 6 month bday, i figured what the heck...i've got ppl to take pix and videoclips, so off we went :-) in the end it was great to see gabe eating food!
i did learn a few things from this first experience:
- gabe is a good eater, just like i thought he would be :-)
- i might have added too much breastmilk to the rice cereal...it ended up a bit runny
- just like the nutritionist said, babies will tell you when they're full, and sure enough gabe closed his mouth and turned his head away :-)
- he might be a good eater, but our first experience was definitely not a clean one. yup, that's food on his forehead!
- the bibbity and placemat were both new to him, so he treated them like toys :P
