In our continuing adventures of trying solids, I gave him his first taste of veggies this afternoon. Did I choose something user friendly like um, carrots? No, I tried nobody’s favorite – brussel sprouts. I mixed it in with a little plain yogurt to help it go down. He made his usual face when tasting something new and opened wide for the subsequent bites. That's my healthy-eatin' boy!!
His face at the end of the "tasting session". If you click on the pic, you can see the eye boogers that we're dealing with right now:
Do I dare dream that my kid will eat steamed veggies with us every night? A mama can only hope.
I came across this picture of my nephew Thomas from 2001…he’s sitting in the same bouncy seat that Riley has.
I don’t know why, but thought that was kinda cool. We’re looking forward to seeing Thomas and the rest of my family this coming weekend – no one but my mom has met Riley. Can’t wait!

Steamed broccoli is actually one of the few foods that I can count on our Lucy to eat at dinnertime. And Penny eats that stuff hand over fist.
Then again, Penny eats anything, and lots of it. Did you catch the video at our blog with her in a post-black bean afterglow?
yes! I loved the beans beard!
J and I are huge broccoli fans and I had that on my list of veggies to try soon. You give me hope!
