At our visit, the Doctor recommended that we start Coley on some simple solids, considering his size and activity levels... I was going to hold out until 6 months as a technicality, but everything is pointing to him being ready, so I'll take his cues on this one.
We let him play with his soft silicone spoon first, to get used to it. It seems like a fun toy in itself!
Cole enjoyed his first "solid" meal this evening - Organic brown rice cereal, mixed with breastmilk. Sounds tasty! :-) Cole loved it. He seemed to love having something new to eat, after so many weeks now of being interested in what we have been eating. He got lots all over his face (so cute!) and pants and hands - and some in his tummy too - and we both had lots of fun taking turns feeding him.

OMG we were going to get the same bowl for Abner! I already have the sippy cup from Boon. So stylish.
The cup is awesome! The bowl is great too, but my tip: no dishwasher! We put ours in the dishwasher and the lip looks a little wonky now. But I love it - and it definitely caught the mess. Some of it, anyway!
Great pictures. I love Cole's facial expressions! Must be a pretty cool experience to taste solid(ish) food for the first time :)
Wow, another milestone @:0
That last picture is great...I think he's wondering...what the heck is this...
