"You can’t make me eat this!"- July 26, 2011
This is look of absolute utter disdain….
This face says, “Don’t you put that disgusting crap back in my face!” She’s eyeing this jar because I tried to feed her something with fruit in it. I didn’t feed her anything with fruit for a long time. I followed the pediatrician’s recommendation of going from organic cereal, to organic veggies, to organic meat and slowly introduce, you guessed it, organic fruit. (I’m sure my boobs are chock full of pesticides, so I figure organic baby food might limit her carcinogen intake.)
You always hear “Keep them off the sweet stuff as long as you can!” So I did. The thing is. She hates fruit. I’m not sure it’s sweet stuff she hates, but anything the slightest bit tart. She loves cereal with breast milk, which is very sweet, so who knows? The weird thing is, she will scarf up stuff that tastes terrible like Chicken and Brown Rice, but not eat the Banana Peach stuff that rocks! (Yeah, I’m a baby food taster. What’s it to ya?)
You’ll notice the paci in her mouth. Yeah, I was feeding her and she saw the paci on the highchair and put it in her mouth so I wouldn’t feed her anymore. I fell out laughing at her not-so-subtle protest.
Spread it around:
I don't think I can understand someone who doesn't like sweet things. {She writes as she just finished a Rice Krispies Treat) 😉
hahaha this cracks me up! love the picture.
You should try making her food – it's SO easy and I found it fun. I could make enough food in an hour to last a week or two. And it tastes way better than the jar stuff. I bought fresh or frozen organic fruit. Throw it in the blender, with breastmilk and/or cereal if you want, then pour it in ice cube trays and refreeze it in cubes. Justin LOVED it. I usually mixed bananas with peaches or blueberries. I also made his veggies that way – steam or boil, blend (or food process when he was ready for more texture), freeze in cubes. Voila – fresh colorful homemade babyfood!
She is so awesome… standing her ground. NO sugar for me momma.
