Cereal Time!

We decided this past week, after much debate, to start trying rice cereal with Hayes.  I figured it would take a few days, maybe even weeks, for him to really eat any.  Boy was I wrong!  Our little man gobbled it up the first night!  Here are some pictures from the first few days.....

just a little bit on his face...........

His high chair doubles as his home office.....

"if only I could eat these things, too...."

reading time with daddy

*Our little man has also had a cold this week which has been so sad!!  On a good note, he is learning how to soothe himself now that he is sleeping on his stomach and we are finally getting used to all his movement in the crib!  Who knew that after getting him to sleep through the night on his back that we would have to "sleep train" once again now that he is on his stomach.  We stopped using the sleep sack (which we think may have been hindering him from rolling back around) and just have him sleep in very thick feety pajamas.  Also, after removing the bumper pads, then putting them back in again, I decided that neither option really made me comfortable.  So I found these "breathable bumper pads" that seem to be working great.  They keep him from getting limbs caught between the slats and are also breathable if he rolls into them.  Cheers to always finding new baby products!*
