The Ray Family: Rice Cereal

Rice Cereal

The doctor told us we could start rice cereal at Corbin's 4 month appointment. With Cason, we started it that day he turned 4 months old and I was so good about giving it to him every day. With poor Corbin, we tried it several days after his 4 month birthday and we have only done it 3 times---LOL! I need to get better about this.

Here is Corbin with his rice cereal for the first time. He ate it (sort of) but he didn't love it.

Cason LOVED his rice cereal from the very first time we gave it to him. He screamed when we didn't give it to him fast enough---LOL
