Finally, some real(ish) food!


So as Mason will be turning 4 months old next week I decided to start him on cereal this week.

Surprisingly he did great. He was pretty decent at opening his mouth for the food and keeping most of it in his mouth when he swallowed.





Aidan came over and asked if he could help feed him, so I thought "why not?"

Ry grabbed the camera to document as I laughed hysterically with Aidan on my lap.




Oddly enough they both managed to survive, and Aidan only gagged him a few times with the spoon haha.

We remembered the transition to rice cereal being a little more traumatic with Aidan because at Aidan's 2 month visit we saw a "fill-in" pediatrician who told us Aidan had reached the max allowance of formula for a baby in a  day and said we should start him on cereal (mind you he was only 9/10 weeks old at this point). So in looking back at both boys reactions to starting solid foods I can see that Aidan was just NOT ready for it. He would scream and fight us so bad when we would try to give it to him. Mason just took that spoon like he was an old pro!




And so the fun of the baby food journey begins.....
