Branching out

Until a couple of weeks ago, Owen has had a steady diet of milk, milk and more milk. But, when we were in Minneapolis, we decided to use the high chair at my parents' and give the rice cereal a try.

Owen has been really attentive when we're eating, so it was fun to see him engaged in food of his own. He kept wanting to grab the spoon, which made getting the cereal in his mouth a challenge. But, despite the evidence in these pictures, more ended up in his mouth than on his face and the bib.
