Yum, Yum!

We tried rice cereal for the first time with Miss Shelby when she turned 4 months, but she definitely wasn't ready just yet! Here's a video of her first taste...

As you can tell, she wasn't a huge fan! ;) We decided to just wait and try again at 5 months. She still wasn't loving it, but after a few days of practice with the spoon she has really gotten the hang of it! Now she actually leans in for another bite..it's too cute! Before she was fussing if I put the spoon anywhere near her mouth, and now she's fussing if I don't give her the spoon again fast enough! Here are 2 (much shorter) videos of her eating cereal last night.

And, yes that is her rice cereal in a shot glass. I know, we should really get the "Parents of the Year" award. But in our defense, we have been on a boil water alert for the past seven days, and I'm not a fan of boiling water to wash my dishes. (aka..the dishes are piling up almost to the ceiling at this point!) We didn't have any other small bowls/cups that were clean to put her cereal in, so we broke out a shot glass. And it worked perfectly! :)

In other more exciting news, Shelby is officially a big cousin! :) My sweet niece entered the world on Thursday evening, and we got to meet her this weekend! Details & pictures to follow soon...

Happy Monday, Everyone! :)
