Jackson's first foods

We decided to start Jackson on rice cereal when he turned 4 months old. I really thought he'd gobble it up and enjoy every bite. Boy was I wrong! He doesn't understand the texture... He thinks milk should only come from a bottle. Here are a few pictures of his first cereal experience...
(disclaimer: Brent takes blurry pictures)

Since cereal night didn't go as planned we decided to put Jackson's new high chair together and give applesauce a try...

 "I'm not sure what I think about this dad"
 First taste of sugar!

It probably wasn't a good idea to give him Wal-Mart brand adult applesauce. Brent was determined to see if it was the texture of his milk or the process of using a spoon that Jackson was unhappy with. He solidified our milk from a bottle only theory as he gobbled up the applesauce from his baby spoon. We've since given him Gerber baby applesauce and he did okay with it. 

Today I introduced bananas to him. He seemed to really enjoy them :)

Someone please slow time down or my next post will be about him eating a steak and baked potato!
