The trouble with food

Getting Dallin to eat baby food has been a struggle. He really puts up a fight and screams and tries to jump out of his chair to get away from the food. The following two videos show some of the things he will do when I try to feed him. Because he was too distracted by the camera, what you see is very tame for his normal reaction to food, but you get a taste of it.

And I'm happy to report that for the past 3 days, he's been eating a lot better and actually enjoying the food, I think. Who knew that sweet potato soup is what the little guy was craving? (pureed sweet potatoes thinned with milk)

We're happy for sweet potato soup. That sounds good. Maybe we should try that. I think his face is starting to look a little chubbier.

Yeah, that's not anywhere near as bad as his usual fits. I'm glad he's starting to enjoy eating, though.

Way to go Dallin! your cousin Porter's favorite is carrots...although he's been partial to the meats lately, mixed with a veggie. your cheeks ARE looking a little more chubby...keep up the good work! (way to hang in there, mom!)
