This girl? Loves her some rice cereal.

She is a huge fan of cereal mixed with green beans, peas, squash, bananas, apples, peaches, or sweet potatoes. And when it is all gone and you move away from her to wash out the bowl? Panic.

Also, she thinks she can run the spoon. But then she gags herself, gets mad, gives it back, and tries again. It’s a vicious cycle, I tell you.

With the introduction and absolute love for cereal, she has really diminished her feedings. She nurses first thing in the morning, around 1-2pm, and then around bedtime. I offer other times, but she is just NOT interested. I tried to give her a little formula in a sippy cup (because I don’t actually own bottles) and she wasn’t impressed. We’ll keep trying and see how long it takes. I would like to have her weaned by the end of the month, but we’ll just see. I certainly don’t think she is in any danger of blowing away!

Over the weekend, I went ahead and decided to get Kenley started on rice cereal. I can’t believe it’s time for that- and that I started her almost a month later than I did Brayden!

She actually did pretty well. There were a few funny faces and some swipes at the spoon, but overall, I think she liked it! I am going to start out slow- once a day (maybe) for the first week and then gradually build up. You would think I would remember exactly what I did with Brayden, but sadly, I don’t.

I can’t believe this is another first- and it is already gone.
