First bite...at least from a spoon
Elias is five months now. To sound cliche, it seems impossible. As much as I want to sleep a full night, or even more than four hours, I don't want him to grow up so fast. I feel like he's on the verge of so much... teeth (ouch), using rolling as a means of movement (he flipped from his belly to his back last week, and can flip from his back to his belly at times), spitting carrots all over the place (at least we have Zeppo)... Look at the picture, he took his first bite of cereal! He loved it, and welcomed every spoonful, but I don't think his stomach was quite ready for it. He seemed unusually fussy that evening, so we've backed off and will wait a few more weeks to start again. I'm not worried; he is OBVIOUSLY thriving without a bit of oatmeal.
In the same breath, I will say I can't wait to see who he will turn out to be. What will Eli be like when he's Gus' age?
