Take one look at Lili's ample thighs, and you will understand that she likes her food. She has, however, become a bit more discerning recently, preferring fruit and yogurt to vegetable and other savoury purees. Sometimes I try to be a sneaky chef and mix fruits and vegetables together in an attempt to fake her out, but the thing that seems to work best is just giving her a piece of soft, cooked veggie to chew on...
Now that she is in control, carrots and green beans are her friends again. She would also like to make friends with anything I happen to be eating.
If she eats really well, she gets to have cake!! Well... a rice cake.
What the heck is this delicious thing?
At the end of it all, I praise her and praise her for having such a good lunch. Then I pull her out of the high chair and discover all of those carrots, beans, bits of cheese and biscuits collected in the corners and crevices of the seat. Oh well, we are getting there. Learning is extremely messy.
