We're still trying to develop PJEW's palate, and so far, so good. He hasn't really disliked anything that he's tried, minus avocados (still.) I did read last night that it could take 10-15 attempts at feeding a child something before they actually "take" to it. I'm pretty determined with the avocados, so I'll keep trying.
Here was his menu yesterday:
Breakfast- Blueberry pancakes (again), 1/4 banana, and 8 oz. milk
Snack- Granola
Lunch- Hummus on a whole-grain wrap, mandarin oranges, water
Snack-1/2 of a granola bar and some Jelly Bellies
Dinner- Pork chops and sauerkraut, butter noodles,a handful of blueberries, and milk
For the record, the combination of oranges, sauerkraut, and hummus makes for horrendous diaper changes.
The family. We are a little band of characters trudging through life, sharing diseases and toothpaste, coveting one another's desserts, hiding shampoo, borrowing money, locking each other out of our rooms, inflicting pain and kissing to heal it in the same instant, loving, laughing, defending, and trying to figure out the common thread that binds us all together.
