March 15
Lucas finally got his first solid food, rice cereal, when he was five months and a week old, to be exact! I'm not sure if he was ready before then, but he seemed to be fine with just nursing, and his weight and size did not seem to be suffering! I was hoping it would help him sleep longer at night too, but it didn't make too much of a difference. I waited longer to give it to him than the girls for two reasons, trying to put off the milestones and keep him little for as long as possible, and just the sheer lack of time that I feel like I have balancing the three kids. Waiting definitely made him ready, and he was so excited. He was a great eater too, and seemed to know just what to do with it from the beginning. He gets so excited for feeding time now!
