Feeding Time at the Zoo

 

We had to call our pediatrician because Matty had started to show signs of teething like gnawing on knuckles, chewing on teething rings and lots of slobber all down his chin. While I had Dr. J. on the phone I asked him when we could start giving Matty rice cereal because he was screaming(!!!!!) for his bottles every hour and a half. And since Matty was taking 8 bottles in a 24 hour period we were told to start him on rice cereal. Now I won't lie and say he was a perfect angel and took it like a champ from the get go, it took nearly a week to teach him to take it from a spoon. We also had to learn the consistency to make it and what the best time to get him to eat with out too much of a problem was. As you can see in the picture above I now can't get it in his mouth fast enough.
