Introducing Solids!

We took Nate to his pediatrician for a quick checkup last Tuesday. The doctor wanted to weigh and check Nate due to his acid reflux symptoms. Nate was switched to a new medication a week ago and although his symptoms have improved, acid still appears to be bothering him. Good news, however, is that Nate is still gaining weight at a very good pace and the doctor was pleased about that.

And since Nate was close enough to being 4 months, the doctor suggested that we go ahead and start supplementing with some solids. We'll start with brown rice cereal for the time being and introduce vegetables after he reaches 5 months of age. He's just growing up so fast!!! We decided to wait until Saturday to give Nate the cereal so daddy could partake of this momentous occassion! He made us so proud and started eating from the spoon like a pro right away. Here are some pictures and a video clip for you to enjoy!

All strapped in and ready for his first bite...
