Jude's 1st food

Jude is now 6 months old!  Jude's pediatrician said she was happy with his weight and that we didn't need to start solid foods, but we could if we wanted to.  I didn't want to wait any longer to feed him his first rice cereal.  I'm not sure how much of the rice cereal he actually swallowed, but he did not put up a fight at all.  He's had cereal the past 2 days and seems pretty interested in it.  I think it will take him a while to really figure it all out, but I have no doubt it will happen.

His cheeks are extra rosy in these pictures.  He was not feeling well at all yesterday.  Friday he got some shots.  He has also had a cough the past few days.  He had a fever on Friday and did not sleep at all Friday night.  Thankfully, he took a nap on Saturday and slept well last night.  I've never seen him wear this blank stare on his face for a whole day, it was unusual.  Poor baby.







Jude was back to his happy and smiley self this morning.  He has not taken to the pacifier or to sucking his thumb, but he can be found chewing on his finger frequently.  He loves to put just about anything in his mouth.
