Eating cereal off a spoon

Yesterday I decided to try giving Talan cereal from a spoon, so far I've just added it to his bottle and given it to him that way. The first few bites were very uninvited! He wanted absolutely nothing to do with it, spitting it back out as he screamed became a fun game! So I tried giving him a little formula from his bottle so he wasn't so hungry, then try the cereal again....it worked!! The problem I discovered, was that he as so hungry and cereal doesn't give instant gratification. It takes longer to feel full when he eats cereal, so once I got something in his stomach so he wasn't so hungry...he loved the cereal! Talan kind of has an attitude, and if it's not what he wants when he wants it, he's mad. Therefore from now on, I'll have to give him a bottle and then cereal....

We also went to Idaho to visit my parents this last weekend and it was a blast!! I got to spend a couple of days with my mom and we had lots of fun. We mostly just bummed around in Idaho Falls, but I found the cutest Easter church outfit for Talan(I'll post those pictures when he wears it on Easter) and I also found stuff to make Talan some pacifier holders. They are adorable!! He likes to spit out his pacifier all the time and we are constantly washing it off after its been on a nasty floor. I looked for some at the stores we went to over the weekend and its actually really hard to find them! Most stores had the same kind...not the kind I needed! I had no idea there were so many different kinds of them!

Grandma and Grandpa has such a fun time playing with Talan! Grandma figured out that he loves to sit in a high chair and play with a ring to a canning jar and she had a baggie with candy in it and he loved that! He also loved grandma's yogurt and Grandpa's cream cheese frosting. Go figure! Grandpa tried putting his hat on Talan and he thought that was great! It was so cute!! We had such a great time and can't wait to go up there again!!!
