Owen has not been sleeping well (waking up 5-6 times a night) so our pediatrician recommended that we start giving him rice cereal. Being a first time parent I had wonderful ideas that he would love the cereal immediately, eat a few tablespoons before bed and sleep for 4-5 hours. I now realize how foolish I was! Owen was not impressed, you would have though that I was giving him medicine. Granted he was a little suspicious of me anyways because I gave him prune juice earlier in the day because he had some digestive issues. After a few spoonfuls I waved the white flag and gave up on my dreams of a good night sleep.
Day two went a little better. He did not scrunch up his face near as much but I am still not sure if he actually swallowed any! I am keeping my fingers crossed that he will decide he likes it and that it will help him sleep for longer than a two hour stretch!
He is not impressed with the situation.
At least playing with the spoon was fun!
Round 2 - Mom won!
I think more made it on him than in him...
Showing off his feet.
Don't we all wish we were this flexible!
Watching the Olympics, maybe he will be a downhill skier!
