I have been pretty adamant that Oakley not have solid foods until six months. There has been the occasional sucked on finger but no full on meals for our little boy. Now he is six months and I had the *honour* of feeding him his first rice cereal on his first half birthday. I think I'll let the pictures do the talking for me.

Oakley has progressed very quickly this week. Even the second day he was opening his mouth eagerly anticipating the next bite. I couldn't get it in there fast enough. On the fourth day I changed things up a bit and added formula instead of breast milk to the cereal. At first, he acted like I was poisoning him - apparently formula is an acquired taste - but he quickly adjusted to the new flavour and ate up all his food. :) I'm so excited for this next phase. Way to go my little eater!
