So we have put both feet into "real food" land, and we seem to be doing pretty good. Our first attempt was green beans that I blended up myself, and that didn't go over very well. He spit it out, shook his head, and gaged himself. So, we moved onto squash since I heard that it tends to be a favorite. He loves it and barely reacted to the different taste. Once we finished that container, we tried peas. It was like green beans all over again. I fed peas to him the first time and tried it several different times during the same sitting. All my attempts met the same reaction....spit up, shake head, gag. I thought we should start thinking about buying stock in squash, until last night. I gave Samuel the evening feeding honors since I was in the middle of a project and all he was doing was watching his favorite "Top Gear" car show on the BBC ("but I haven't seen this one!!" he says...grrr...you mommies know how that excuse goes over!). A few minutes later I look up and see Samuel set down the EMPTY peas container. "He ate it all?!?" "Yup." "Did he like it?!?" "Yup." Hmmm. I guess I know who will get the new-food-introduction honors from now on.
