First Feeding

At the boys last checkup we got the go ahead to start feeding them "real" food. Real as in the mush that is baby food. We started simple, mixing up rice cereal just like the box indicated for "Baby's first feeding." Some observations:

1) The number of bibs we need to own just tripled.
2) In addition to the unmistakable "yucky" face, the other expression most worn by the boys was confusion
3) Ben is already trying to grab the spoon away from me.
4) Matt did not like it. At all.
5) When mixed according to the directions for a baby's first feeding, rice cereal is the consistency of soup. Thin, watery soup. Which is fine but in my head we were going to be feeding them the previously mentioned mush. This is apparently something they work up to.

I've added a few pictures below. Click on them for bigger versions and the whole set can be found here.
