Fun with solid food!

Gabriel has been given the "green light" to try solid foods, e.g., single grain cereals, such as rice cereal and oatmeal.

However, these new solids will not yet replace bottle feeding; rather, they are being introduced to help him practice and become accustomed to eating solid foods.

He doesn't care much for the rice cereal...I can't blame him, it looks like dry wall flakes...but he loves the oatmeal. After 4 days of practice with solids he now recognizes the bowl when we bring it to him and opens his mouth wide when he sees the spoon headed his way.

Oh yeah, he also started eating out of his new high chair.
