Rice cereal—it’s a tremendous rite of passage for the six month baby.  This is our third time around introducing solids, and although each time I have approached it a little differently, each time the reaction has been the same:  smiles and excitement in the beginning, but grimaces and  disappointment in the end.  Delaney actually had a little yogurt on Thursday and today it was the second attempt at the cereal.  I tried to make sure she wasn’t too hungry, full, or tired—all the things that can bring eating to an abrupt halt.  But, it didn’t make a difference.  She was still very unimpressed. We’ll try again either tonight or tomorrow, and then again and again and again.  Eventually, she’ll get there!
