Eila ate her first solid food this weekend...rice cereal. She seemed to like it, only spitting out some of what made it to her mouth. We'll see how things go in a few weeks/months as the food gets more and more solid, and more and more colorful and flavorful...

Shannon has also decided to take a stab at making her own baby food, so this rice cereal is homemade (in as much is that we ran the brown rice through a blender first before cooking it). I think we're planning on sweet potatoes next, but that's still a bit down the road.

The rice cereal actually wasn't too bad. Maybe I'll make myself up a big bowl with a little (cow's) milk in it.
