That is the same way Blake was when I tired him with the oatmeal. It was as

if he knew what to do. He didn't struggle and need to learn. He hated the

peaches, though. :-)

The mashed potatoes are gross though!!

My daughter started on rice cereal (also tasteless) last night and she acted

the same way. DD is 6 months so we are ready to start solids daily, but she

won't eat above 1/2 Tbsp yet.
