When Aidan was going through his growth spurt a few weeks ago we were exhausted and unable to keep him happy and full so we decided to try solids. With his pediatrician's ok, we started Aidan on some rice cereal. He didn't really understand how to swallow the cereal at first and he made some pretty funny faces and odd noises! Overall, I think it went ok, but at 4 1/2 months it was just a bit too early for him to eat solids. If nothing else, the experience provided some great photos for Nana Caz who asks for more pics everyday! Now he is 5 months and we're going to try again over the Holidays and hopefully this time he'll actually eat some of the cereal instead of just wearing it. We'll keep you posted!
He loved his high chair! Here he is sitting in it for the first time...

The bib goes on and he loves that too. So much so that he decides he'll just eat the bib!

Yum, this bib tastes good

First bite of real food...

I just love this expression!

Not sure if any of it made it in his mouth!

He pauses to take it in.

Daddy has a go and gets the same priceless expression from Aidan!

Love it

I think he actually swallowed some at this point and he let out a horrified shriek! He was excited as well, so we're not sure if he loved or hated the cereal.


Wearing a beard of cereal

All cleaned up and so happy!
