The perils of rice cereal

So we've started Wyatt on rice cereal...which is the funniest and most frustrating thing I have experienced as a mother to date. When we first started it was completely ridiculous...I'd shovel it in, and Wyatt would spit it out. We did this for about a week (prior to the holidays) before I gave up for a while. I figured it wouldn't be easy to deal with rice cereal, and a child who didn't have the hang of it, while out of town anyway. So now we're home and settled and we've picked it up again. The little man is finally figuring out how to swallow it, but still manages to make a huge mess. I'm not sure that there is a clean, neat way to feed an infant. I'll probably start spreading newspapers out underneath him to protect the floors...but then again, it could still get on the walls. Too bad they don't make a giant plastic tent to put around kids while they eat.





And there's just one more picture I wanted to share...Wyatt loves his daddy and loves to sit with Josh while he's working on the computer. So Wyatt was sitting with Josh and Josh was talking to Wyatt when I caught this moment. It just melts my heart...
