milk + rice cereals = one PG happy joel!

that's rice cereals! you read it right. yes, my first ever attempt to take in something solid. my first time to try solid food. and it all began this very same day.

dad's the one who's really excited to give me solids already. he thought that since i love watching them eat, solid food and i will have nothing but a love-love relationship. so they wouldn't have any problems feeding me. they of course followed my pedia's recommendations.

i really didn't know what that spoon is for. yeah, i always see mom and dad use it, and whenever they eat, i really watch them with envy and pananakam. but when that spoon first touched my lips, i really didn't know what to expect. initially, my worried mom thought that i wouldn't eat it. (video of my very first encounter with a spoon)


when i was able to taste it, oh heaven! i couln't stop! i wanted to gobble everything and wipe that bowl clean! i wanted to grab the spoon and put everything in my mouth. though i'm still learning the art of swallowing and how my tongue should help in the process, i still enjoyed every spoonful of that rice cereal and milk concoction!

i may have been one dirty baby afterwards, but this was nothing (even with my oc dad who's always wiping me with a damp cloth) compared to the PG happy baby that this first experience made. uh-huh, another one of those memorable and well-documented milestone.

can't hardly wait for tomorrow's meal! weehee!
