Yummy!

On Tuesday, Connor had his 4 month check-up, where he weighed in at 15 pounds, 11 ounces and 25 1/2 inches tall - both in the 75th percentile.  The doctor said he is still a big growing boy and that we could go ahead and start solid foods with him once a day.

On Wednesday, Connor experienced his first solid food experience.  It was pretty funny to see his reaction to rice cereal!  He ate really well at the beginning then decided it was time to start spitting it out and laughing.

Here are some pictures that Keith captured while I fed him:

 First reaction to the high chair - what the heck is going on?

 Rice cereal mixed with formula - starts out really soupy for the first few days

First bite! 

His expressions were so funny!

Trying to figure out what to do with it next

 He seemed more interested in eating his bib!

 

He got bored and started to spit it out.

Since Wednesday, each day has gotten a little better with him eating.  The doctor said that the first few times, more food will come back out than down the hatch... we have definitely seen this to be true!

In other news, our crazy boy is more and more active each day so we bought him his latest toy to help him get stronger... he loves his new exersaucer!
