We are all recovering from colds around here but a sure sign Benj is feeling better is when he starts eating again. Julia kind of nibbles all day long and while Benjamin will have a couple of small snacks, when he sits down to a meal he really eats! We haven’t found anything that he won’t at least try and usually will take several bites even if he doesn’t appear to like it (this happened with green olives and a pickle). This week he has been polishing off sausage, apple and carrot yogurt, some cheerios and a good portion of my oatmeal for breakfast, crackers, cheese, black beans, and grapes for lunch, and assorted meals for dinner. Last night he ate some of the mushroom stew and gorgonzola polenta that I had made for Andrew and I and the other night he didn’t bat an eye at pasta with a spicy tomato sauce and polished off what we put on his tray. I’m sure he will go through phases just like Julia has but for now I’m enjoying a child who eats what’s put in front of him and likes it!
