Onto more fun challenges: feeding the boy.
He's a really good eater. The size of his belly confirms that. But about a month ago, when we'd feed him pureed veggies, we got this:
Super annoying. And confusing. It was food he liked (or at least used to like). And if we distracted him, usually by dancing and singing the Alka Seltzer theme song, he would eat the food. But that got tiring after a while.
And then we thought that maybe it was an independence thing, and he just wanted to feed himself. Sure enough:
He'll happily shovel in carrots and green beans, as long as we don't puree them first. He still eats breakfast stuff (applesauce, pureed fruit, yogurt, etc.) from a spoon. But everything else, we just give to him in small pieces.
His first taste of mac and cheese (with carrots mixed in -- that makes it healthy, right?):
But mac and cheese mixed with peas got this reception:
The peas were unceremoniously discarded into the cup holder. Oh well. Another day...
