The Adventures of Food

Malia and I have learned a lot over the last 2 months while she has been starting to eat.

Malia has learned more elementary things such as.

1. If she doesn't like fruit she does not have to eat it.

Malia has recently started to spit things out on a larger scale. She always some what spit food out but I could catch it before it made to big of a mess. Now however she takes a few bites and doesn't swallow. Then out of no where she spits this food out while turning her head at an alarming speed. The food then sprays all over her and the table.

2. Mommy can only feed you so fast.

Malia is not a slow eater. She takes a bite and literally one second later her mouth is open for more. This creates a small problem as I can not possible get food to her little mouth that fast. It is not humanly possible. So for the last month and a half. She would get mad cry put her hands on the table and then place her face on the table and just scream. This would prolong the time in between bites. She finally learned this week to just wait an extra second and she won't have to go through this hassle of crying. Hooray!

3. Vegetables are yummy fruit is gross.

She still hates fruit! My pediatrician said he had never met a baby who didn't like applesauce and banana's. Well welcome to my world! We tried pee's this week and she couldn't get enough she was so excited! I guess I will count my blessings it is easier to hide apple sauce then pee's.
