Hey everyone:
Thanks for your stories so far. He's getting variably mixed rice cereal once a day right now, and seems to be liking it just fine. He's not crying out for more or anything, but I gather he's just getting the hang of having solids in his mouth and learning to swallow without sucking.
He's been a good sleeper, too, so we haven't been tempted to slip some solids into bottles or anything like that; just trying to make a go of the "this is food in solid form" angle, which is going well.
It's great to hear that some of your (collective) children are liking the vegetables. That's kinda important
