Today Luke turned 6 months old and had his first taste of real food! Well, if by real food you mean rice cereal =). He enjoyed the experience very much---he kept grabbing the spoon and putting it in his mouth. I think I made it a bit thick at first, so he gagged a little bit. But of all my children, he seemed the most adept at eating from the start, and he certainly seemed to like the taste. His expression on the first taste seemed to be something like, "why have you been keeping this from me!" The biggest problem with the feeding was that just before I started feeding him, he grabbed a handful of my hair so the spoon kept having hair draped over it.
After he was done eating, of course, he leaned over my shoulder and started gnawing at the chair again. It may be that rice cereal is just another one of the new tastes he has every day, along with glasses, hair, train tracks, couch, etc. In a few days I can let you all know how he likes vegetables =)
