I have to say I like Fawns suggestions cause I'm still at a loss sometimes. Oliver loves little bits of pizza, cheese especially, Goldfish crackers, spagetti (very messy though) mandarine oranges, strawberries, mango, corn, little tiny meatballs. Pretty much whatever we're eating as long as it's on his plan. The Oliver plan doesn't include alot of meat so I put bbq sauce on things to trick him into eating it and it also doesn't include apples, pears, banana... white fruit of any kind. He's a strange kid.Morenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10308554786875845271noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-555974008844207914.post-69125986705842474102010-03-25T10:51:03.854-07:002010-03-25T10:51:03.854-07:00My son never ate any puree food.

He also had a lot of teeths and his first molars came when he just turned 1. So little by little, I just added any vegetable you can think off: cooked cubes of potato, sweet potato, any peas, broccoli, cauliflower, carrots, of course pasta too. Quickly, I tried to cook them less and less so that he would get used to crunchy.<br />And why don't you just let him spoon-feed himself? S. was also very much into using his spoon and fork by himself and by age 1, he was feeding himself for half of his meal (while I was doing the dishes or simply seating and resting). Then when he got tired, he let me feed him for the rest of his meal. It was slightly messy but really hepful for me - the more he does by himself, the better off I am :)Elisehttp://djoumelise.taket.orgnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-555974008844207914.post-46985664481256933772010-03-25T06:36:28.167-07:002010-03-25T06:36:28.167-07:00Michael was ALL about finger food.

We gave him whatever we were eating, but he was especially fond of pieces of seaweed (dulse), avocados, Craisins, and Cheerios.Meganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17013847036123410760noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-555974008844207914.post-33612465693785438512010-03-25T05:19:47.687-07:002010-03-25T05:19:47.687-07:00your last comment made me laugh..lol
