Now that Isaac's getting older, we've been encouraging him to eat solid foods. Sometimes he's very excited, but at others he can take it or leave it. One aspect of solids that really appeals to him, though, is the prospect of feeding himself: he nearly always grabs the spoon away from me or David and insists upon feeding himself.
Of course this means that dinner time is a little messier...
Isaac's now tried several different foods, from sweet potatoes and peas to bananas and avocados. While he's a veggie fan, he's not so into fruits, except for bananas (he actually ate about 2/3 of a banana the other night...and then chugged eight ounces of formula). I had hoped he'd go for avocados--I craved them when I was pregnant--but nope. Apples--a favorite of his daddy's when he was a baby? Not so much. And don't even mention pears to him.
Isaac thinks pears are disgusting. And I thought babies were supposed to like fruit?
