Mmmmm....Rice cereal

At our last doctors visit, Brinley's doctor suggested starting her on rice cereal a little early since she was losing percentage points. His other suggestion was formula, and that stuff is expensive so I opted for the cereal and since Brinley had been showing interest in food and loves watching me eat, I felt comfortable that she was ready.
So, while we were back in Red Bud Brinley got her 1st taste of rice cereal. With everyone gathered around she took her first bites...surprisingly enough most of it stayed in her mouth! She was a little unsure at first, but seemed to really enjoy it!
Since her first bite the girl has taken off, she devours the cereal. We quickly moved from once a day to twice a day. Once we get back from our trip to Vegas next week I'm going to start making our own baby food and start her on some veggies.
The cereal seems to really be helping her gain some weight, but I need to weigh her tonight for her 5 month update to make sure.

Here are a few pictures of her 1st tastes of cereal....
