Eating Cereal

I was not going to feed Elin cereal until 6 months but at her 4 month check up her doctor thought it would be good for her. She is already turning over, sitting up a little and is interested in our food and cups. Plus she started waking up 2 times a night to eat, which was a change from her sleeping through the night.
I was on a babywise blog, trying to figure out what i could do for the 4 month sleep intruder. When lo and behold everyone suggested that feeding cereal helped and that they need the extra calories to sleep, due to their growth spurt.

Well she loves it. The kids helped me feed her the first night since daddy was late getting home. I think they were more excited than me. Elin made some nasty faces but ate a good amount. She slept through the night that night. So now everyday she gets a bowl of cereal around 6:30 and is ready for bed at 7.
I have been feeding her every night and thought daddy should get a chance tonight. Elin ate about 10 bites and decided she was done. I get her and she finished the bowl, little stinker. I guess she wants all of her food from me :)

Have I mentioned how great a baby she is, I am so glad God blessed us with her.
