5 Months Old-First Food!!!

Posted by Chelsea on Sunday Feb 22, 2009 Under Infancy

Lucy is 5 months old today.  Time flies, eh?

Last night we fed her rice cereal. We’ll be attempting to feed her rice cereal this month to try and get her used to a spoon.  The real fun starts at 6 months when she starts to get vegetables and fruit.

I got the rice cereal, spoon, high chair, and bib all ready-I was expecting a mess.  She actually did surprisingly well.  She opened her mouth for Mommy and seemed to really like her first taste of “real food”.

Here’s a (pretty boring) video of the experience:

Daddy fed her today-it was messier!

She’s also been working on tummy time. She’s started to “swim” while on her tummy. She moves her arms and her legs like she’s crawling but she’s not strong enough to go anywhere. It’s pretty darn cute:

And now I give you Serious Lucy:

    She gets prettier everyday if that’s at all possible. Pops pointed out that serious Lucy looks a lot like Shaun. 🙂 I get to come spend a girlie weekend with MY baby (Chelsea) and HER baby in the first week of April. I get two babies! Can’t wait! Love to All, MiMi 🙂
    XXX-OOO P.S. Thank you Shaun & Chelsea for doing this, it helps SO much, makes us feel like we know her even though we can’t see her everyday. 🙂
