The grass is always greener

Audrey is always staring at our food as if she is envious of us and our solid food. I have never let her have any because I knew giving her cereal before 4 months could cause allergies. Barker has to take shots for his allergies so I'm doing my best to save Audrey from that. But we went to the Doctor last week for her 4 month appointment and she gave us the okay to start cereal now, if we wanted. Tonight she was staring at our food so we thought it would be the perfect time to give it a whirl. However, she soon decided that the grass is always greener on the other side and she'd rather have milk any day.

Audrey checking out the box..Earth's Best Organic Whole Grain Rice Cereal.

The before picture.

Already not too sure about it, just from the smell.

And discovering that it tastes just as bad as it smells.

Not happy.

Daddy trying to persuade her.

She finally caved and put down a good portion but she also put up a good fight and cry. When she was done with all she could stand of the cereal, she finished her milk and went right to bed. So all and all it was not what I would call a fun experience for her, but she's a Barker...and we love food. So if she ever wants to make her way up to BBQ or Gumbo...she's going to have to get used to the rice cereal. Life is tough at 4 months!
