He was pretty durn interested regardless.
Just look at him! It’s a bowl of mush and he can’t take his eyes off of it.
(I don’t think he’s realized yet that this bland but delicious concoction is…
for him. He has grown so accustomed to his momma eating in front of him that such rudeness doesn’t faze him.)
You know what I like about rice cereal? You don’t need a stove or an oven to prepare it.
How providential.
(Oh, and please ignore the messy countertops. This is real life, people. )
When Anthony saw that the spoon was headed his way…
“Excuse me? I’ll take that.”
And in it went.
Do you like the close-up of my fist? If I’d have known I was going to be in the picture, I would have stopped biting my thumb nail.
As if.
Anyway, the following photo will plainly testify that Anthony’s first reaction was…
“Give me more.”
Second reaction? “Needs salt.”
And—best of all—the third reaction:
He gives my cooking a whopping five stars!
Thank you. Thank you. I opened the box myself.
“The world is my oyster!” he’s all but singing.
Even better, it’s my bowl of mush.
All for the greater glory of God, and that includes messy mealtimes,
Too cute!!!
you crack me up margaret!!! you have a way with words indeed…
and your little one is so DARN CUTE! how do you get anything done around the house?!
This made me tear up Margaret. He's just so beautiful – those bright brown eyes! Congratulations on the first bites. Sniff, sniff.
What a cutie!
Maggie, he is BEAUTIFUL! I love those gorgeous smiles. How do you ever get anything done? I think I would just want to stare at him all day long. You are one blessed mama.
Love you!
That was really cute, Margaret!! And he is adorable =)
Oh my goodness, I love this! What a doll!
I love it! What a doll. So fun, Margaret. Enjoy the rice cereal in your hair from now on out. Ha!
He's gorgeous. Can't get enough of those bright eyes! And that smile.
He could be a commercial. I'd buy anything your little guy tried to sell.
He is so cute!!! What a great way to capture this moment!
He is so stinkin' cute!!
…and if I remember correctly, that mush is so tasteless that none of your other kiddos will want to share with him so he gets it all to himself! Yerk!
Also, those dark eyes are just so gorgeous!

Oh my goodness is that boy scrumptious! I know you don't like this adjective, but…ADORABLE!!
OMGosh! That is *the* cutest post evah!!!
I'm still smiling. Thanks for sharing 🙂
God bless!
Oh, boy. Just wait until he tastes Zwiebach! What a sugar.
Margaret, that may be the most enthusiastic first-tastes of rice cereal I've ever seen! He may just be ready to grab your spoon soon. On top of that, he is just adorable.
Thanks for sharing the messy countertops and the chewed thumbnail too! We (at least I) need to be reassured that everyone's real life is a bit messy sometimes — in different ways.
Hi – this is my 1st time visiting here, linking over from the Real Learning blogroll. I really enjoyed your blog – you have a refreshing perspective & a great way w/words! And a very cute baby 🙂 God Bless!
Oh my … too cute!
What a neat moment by moment of his first solids.
"Those eyes"! and that SMILE, I had to put on my sun glasses as it was so bright…
Today mush, tomorrow steak and potatoes.

that post was very clever and the baby was super adorable!
Way to go Anthony! You've grown up so fast!! Enjoy your solids!
Oh, my! Could he get any cuter?
Jeepers, you already have like 22 comments, I guess I'm late to this party!!
This was sooo cute and has me excited for a couple months when Bridget will be eating solids!
New kind of puke and poop now, right?
He is sooooooo CUTE!
Ahhh, I miss that little guy (and I've only seen him twice)! Maybe we could get together soon…when I'm feeling a bit better that is ;).
Seriously Margaret…he could NOT be any cuter! What a little loverboy!!!
Sooo stinking cute! These images are way too adorable. Great blog!
