Caden has NOT been getting the hang of eating his rice cereal. At his 4 month check-up, they told us to start giving him a few bites each day to get him used to eating food and using a spoon. Lots of heart babies end up having feeding/eating problems, and I have been all stressed and worried because Caden just doesn't want anything to do with his rice cereal. He basically just lets it sit in his mouth and then grins at me and it all dribbles out. Cute, but not super effective for eating.
Finally, Adam convinced me to let him try sweet potatoes that he made using the Baby Bullet that Santa broughtAdam Caden last year. I was skeptical, but it turns out that Caden totally loves sweet potatoes and eats them with much gusto. So apparently, he just doesn't particularly love rice cereal.
I'm also going to go ahead and apologize for the plethora of pictures. I went slightly overboard.
Just for fun, here's the picture of Jayci eating sweet potatoes for the first time. And here's the post I wrote with more pictures of our little drama queen.
Don't forget I'd love to share your heart baby's stories on the Pinterest board (email them to me any time!) And Ruth wrote a FAQ post to answer any and all your questions about what we're doing. CHD Awareness week is coming up soon!
