Eating Solids

This week we began feeding our baby cereal. There are good and bad side effects of Fox eating more than just milk.

The Goods:
-It's cute to watch him get all covered with sticky food stuffs
-He seems to enjoy biting on the rubber tip of his spoons
-It makes me proud to see him acting more and more like a little person
-Supposedly, this will help him sleep longer/better during the night

The Bads:
-It's messy
-The process of cleaning up after the meal takes around 20 minutes
-This will lead to peas, carrots, bananas, and other nonsense
-Poop will start to smell like poop before long
-I have to mix the cereal with breastmilk, which means extra pumping (blah)
-It's proof he is growing up, and I explicitly told him he wasn't supposed to do that. He is breaking rules.
