Rice Cereal = World Domination

Rice Cereal is really really messy.

Since Graysyn has become 4 months old, EW and I have been introducing foods to him slowly. First we have started with the rice cereal...but don't let this apparently harmless thickening ingredient fool you....in the hands of a 5 month old boy bent on world domination it becomes a diabolical weapon in his plot. Never have I seen a child so interested in getting the rice cereal on his cheek, on the high chair, in his hair, or on his bib then rather than in his mouth. AND if you are one of the lucky few who do get it in his mouth, 9 times out of 10 he will spit it out. I have had to come up with some pretty crafty tricks in order for him to eat a few bites of it. But it only works the first couple times before he figures out what I am trying to do, then I have to think up new tactics. *sigh* the joys of parenthood.

In other news the FF (Fines Family) visited Zion National Park the other day. It is actually a very gorgeous park. We did about 6 miles worth of hiking in the area, and still did not have enough time to see it all. Below is a short clip from our expedition.
