the day is tuesday 18 may 2010, one day after naomi is 5 months old, we started giving her solid: FAREX baby rice cereal. lucko is more excited than me. 1 tablespoon of cereal mixed with 3 tablespoons of water. naomi seems to like it. she is ready because she opens her mouth when the spoon is nearing her mouth, and she can swallow well too :) yay
