I cheated

The plan was to wait six months before giving Evan solid food.  Six months of just breastmilk.

We made it five months and eighteen days.  I say, close enough!

We chose rice cereal since rice is pretty innocuous.  Here's how it went in pictures:

Success!

Now the plan is to stick with rice cereal for the next week or so before adding another food (I'm thinking sweet potato), which we will do for another week before adding another food, and so on. With the history of allergies in Brian, we just want to take it slowly and be safe.
