Lizzie and rice cereal

We've hit that exciting stage where Lizzie is starting to get solid foods. The starting level for this is rice cereal, which is nowhere near solid, but still more solid than milk. Emily's done most of the feeding, but I've taken a stab at it as well. I think the experience is comparable to trying to shovel water up a slide, because so much of the food ends up on Lizzie's bib, face, and hands. But, she hasn't started smearing it into her hair yet, which I suppose is inevitable. Here are some photos from her first experience:

But after we get some to stay in her mouth she gives it thoughtful consideration:


And decides she likes it enough to want to be in control of the delivery process:
