For the past two weeks, we have been attempting to get Maddox to eat a little cereal. He seems to like the taste okay, but he is not a fan of the spoon. It is actually pretty funny because he keeps his lips shut as tight as he can so I can't get the spoon in his mouth, but after I move the spoon he licks the cereal off his lips. I managed to wedge the spoon in there a few times, but we never really had too much success. We even tried applesauce yesterday and he seemed to like it too, but again, he just isn't a fan of the spoon. Well tonight I FINALLY had a very successful feeding. He ate almost an entire container of applesauce mixed with cereal, and that was after taking an 8 oz. bottle. What a good little eater! Hopefully his spoon issues are behind us now.
Here is a picture of the very first time we gave him a few bites of cereal. Gotta love the funny faces!
And here is a short video of Maddox enjoying some applesauce and cereal...

That cracks me up! Sam took MONTHS to eat,too! People said just be conistent, but you get really disheartened after weeks of nothing! He had also gotten up to drinking 7-8 individual 8oz bottles!! When he finally started eating he dropped down to 4-5 individual 6 oz bottles with food feedings three times a day between bottles. BUT he STILL doesn't like applesauce, which your little man seems quite content with! He is so cute!
