Rice is Nice.....and messy

You can tell that I am about as unsure as he is!

We had our 4 month check up last week and Mr. Caleb weighed in at 14 lbs, 14 oz. So for all those people who keep telling us we have a "healthy" baby (which we know really means "fat") he's actually very normal!! We also found out he's 25 inches tall...or 2 feet, 1 inch. With the 4 month check came the discussion of solid foods. We are to introduce all the veggies between now and 6 months, but of course we had to start with the rice cereal. Above are some shots from his first feeding from a spoon. We were basically fighting against his toungue, but it was fun. I still haven't figured out how they are actually supposed to eat the stuff because it was practically like feeding him soup it was so thin. Needless to say, more ended up on his face and down his bib than in his tummy. We'll try again tomorrow!
