Yum Yum!!

We have big news..............


On Monday night Walker had his first taste of rice cereal. Yes, everyone I finally broke down and fed him rice cereal. This is something that I have really struggled with over the last month. I really did not want to give it to him just yet, but over the last two weeks he has not been the best sleeper.

So, as all of you know Walker is a total "chow hound" and will eat every chance he gets....well.....Patrick and I thought for sure he would totally dig the rice cereal.....NO, we were totally wrong. HE HATES RICE CEREAL. For the last three nights he has refused to swallow it and made it so difficult for us. So, tonight with lots advice from my friend Amy and my mom I tried mixing the cereal with baby apple sauce. He absolutely LOVED IT. He smiled, giggled and kicked his legs for more:) I think we have found the solution.

Thank you Amy and Mom for calming me down and helping me!! Lets see if he finally sleeps through the night after two very LONG weeks.

Much happier baby eating that yummy yummy apple sauce/cereal. He is so easily tricked:)
