Hi there...I remember your girls are a few weeks older than mine. I saw in your bio what nice eaters they are (impressive with the spoon!). Do u mind if I ask when u started solid food and how much u feed them during the day (bottles and food)? My girls only take a few bites of cereal so far. I'd like to get vegetables started. They are drinking 6 5 oz bottles a day. Thanks!

We got the go ahead at their 4 month appointment to start cereal, but waited until they were 4.5 months. Audrey is a pro at eating, and is doing so well. She LOVES food, anything we give her. Natalie, on the other hand, is very picky and we don't really force her to eat if she doesn't want to. I know she'll pick it up when she is ready.

We do one meal a day, around 6:00-7:00 PM. I give them either rice cereal or oatmeal. I did two weeks of just rice cereal, and then added sweet potatoes. Every three or four days I add in a new fruit or veggie. They still drink 4 oz bottles around 6 times a day/night.

Thanks Jenni- Mind if I bug u with 1 more question...what time do u do bottles? We also do 6 a day with the last one at 10:30pm. I hate putting them into the cribs so late (they nap a bit in their swings between 7:30 and 10:30). I'd love to drop that late bottle but I dont think they're ready yet. I'm wondering if you have a similar schedule. Thanks
