From Orange to White

The stains on Graham's bibs have changed colors in the past couple of days, moving from a sweet potato orange to a rice cereal white.

Our little boy didn't take too well to the sweet potatoes. I'm not sure at this point whether it was just the new-to-food learning curve or the actual sweet potatoes, but either way, we decided to go ahead and move on to rice cereal.

Although Graham is still learning the ropes of eating, he does seem to like the taste of the rice cereal. In fact, the best way I've found to actually get the food in his mouth is to let him grab the spoon and guide it inside his mouth himself. He seems to be a natural at that motion, so I've just gone along for the ride.

One of my favorite parts of the introduction to solids has been how cute our little man looks with a messy face.
