Solid Food, Try #2

We made our second attempt at feeding Dorothy solid food today. It went much better than last time. She was in a much better mood to start with. And she not only took the spoon with rice cereal in her mouth, but she also swallowed a bit of it! Maybe a whole 2ml, or 0.05 ounces! :-)

The surprising thing was that she'd see the spoon, and then she'd open her mouth, just like that. At least for the first half-dozen or so tries. I think she even opened her mouth before and after she'd had a taste of the rice cereal.

Now we just need to keep trying a bit on her every day for the next week. After that comes the baby paste fruits!
