Solids...again

You know, things come in waves. They really do. Again we found ourselves fighting with Helen about eating big people food. For a while, it was bottles bottles bottles. Well, last week like all of a freakin sudden, it is "I want to eat what you are eating too, mom/dad." Now, like every thing, we have to give her a taste, a bite, a smell, or she gets mad!

It surprises me that I say, "Time for breakfast", and she knows it is time to eat. She gets excited when I say that. We have tried lots of things with great success, like noodles, rice, oatmeal, chicken, veggies, fruit, and even some sweet things. I can't tell you just how happy I am that she wants to eat. No more closed lips, and no more crying in the high chair. She amazes me everyday and I am just so proud of her. Almost for her to say, "ok I can eat, what next?" Everyday is truly a delight.
