Bottle Milk or Rice Cereal


Lately little Bree has been acting funny when it comes to her food. We've wondered if it's because she's not feeling full or because she's getting tired of milk. She's starting to show an interest in food so we figure it's a matter of time before we'll be starting her on baby food. If only you can see the look she gives Brian and I as we eat our food; she stares you down as you move food from your plate to your mouth. Watching us ever so careful.

So we decided to start her out on rice cereal. We thought she'd take after her daddy; he loves cereal. He'd literally live off cereal if he could. Sometimes he even thinks cereal is its own food group. Naturally I thought Aubrey would enjoy cereal. So far the verdict is out. Here's some pictures of Aubrey's first tastes of cereal.

And of course we didn't want out little girl to get her pipes clogged, if you know what I mean. So some prunes were added to aid with any constipation that could ensue. Her reaction - priceless.

Feeding Time Awkward Behavior?

Aubrey has developed a behavior that Brian and I are a little concerned about. The baby feeding books and online articles we've read stress the importance of burping a baby periodically as an infant is fed his/her milk from the bottle. However, heaven forbid, if we try to do this, little Bree has a fit. Not just a little wee cry, but a full on tantrum fit. So to prove what we feel is an oddity, we've decided to capture this on film -- at least for posterity sake, right? Let's just say we're adding this to the, "must show future husband" pile of videos so he can truly be made full aware of her personality -- some of which developed at a young age. Has anyone else had these types of tantrums when it comes to food with their little ones???

Video 1 -- shows what happens when she's hungry and we give her the bottle and then we try to see what happens when we take it away.

Video 2 -- shows what happens when we try to burp her.

Happy viewing!
