Ali was very interested in trying out new foods. Her very first food is rice cereal. She would take a small spoonful and chew it a bit and then spit it back out. It was a really messy process, but I think she had a lot of fun (and so did the parents!).

Taking one of her first bites:
On the third night that Ali tried rice cereal, she had an allergic reaction. Her chin and neck were all swollen and red with white bumps (hives?). We were so terrified and worried that it might her breathing might be restricted that we rushed to the ER. By the time we get to see the doctor (after 45 min), the redness has subsided already. Thank goodness! We will stop the solid foods adventure and will resume as soon as get a green light from the doc. Did I mention that Ali finally get to see a dermatologist at Children's this week?? (Finally!!!)
Look at me and my messy face!

Poor girl. What kind of Chinese girl is allergic to rice? What are we going to feed you, little one?
