We fed Nate rice cereal last night. He didn't seem to care for it too much and was more interested in chewing on the spoon than anything else (go figure). But it wasn't a complete disaster either. My goal was to feed him cereal for breakfast each morning and that already hasn't happened! I just hate to force more things he hates into his mouth--have I said how much he hates his medicine and giving it to him is the worst, I hate it and feel awful 
that I have to put him through that 3 times a day! And I don't know the rules on mixing the cereal with juice yet--I know there's the feed the same food 3 days straight to see if there is a reaction--so I'm not sure if I have to give him plain cereal for 3 days first. And, I also want to start him on vegetables...so I'm not sure if I can do that yet AND I don't want to put juice in his cereal and have him like the sweetness so much that he won't like the vegetables. Any suggestions?

Both of my kiddos hated the boxed rice cereal, so my mom told me to try the kind that is already mixed & in a jar -- Gerber Rice Cereal w/applesauce. Texture is completely different, like pudding and tastes better b/c of the applesauce.
As for veggies, we started both kiddos off on sweet potatoes, then carrots, then green stuff. Joshua will not eat veggies unless they are mixed with fruit, so I buy the Parents Choice (Walmart brand) veggie/fruit cups -- Apple/Carrot, Pear/Squash,& Sweet Potato/Orchard Blend.
Hope this helps c:
