Solid foods and Sleep

We started Reese on rice cereal yesterday and thought you might enjoy seeing her reaction.Happy Reese enjoying her highchair before her meal

Daddy, what's that you're sticking in my mouth?
Not sure I like that taste
But ok, I'll try it one more time...

That wasn't so bad

So as you can see, she is in the process of figuring out the whole spoon in the mouth, new taste thing.  It's a lot of fun to watch.
In other really really good news, Reese slept 6 hours straight last night.  Her schedule the last few nights has been to catnap off and on from about 8pm to midnight.  At midnight when we are no longer offering her any food, she screams her pretty little head off for about an hour (yes, our neighbors in the hotel probably love us).  Then she finally falls asleep and so far (all two nights that we've been forcing her to) has slept pretty well for 5-6 hours.  Unfortunately, two nights does not a sleep pattern make.  However, we are hopeful that we may have turned a corner.  Wish us luck!
