We've been feeding this kid a lot of peas lately. He's generally starving right when we get home from daycare since his last snack was at 3:00, and in order to buy some time to figure out what to make, we throw peas on his highchair tray. He eats as many as Shawn and I do in a helping. He loves his peas. He's had them for dinner every night this week. We've been working on introducing more meat products to expand his palate. He's still unsure of meat's chewy textures. Plus, he only has 1 & a half molars so it's not exactly easy to chew. We've tried fish sticks, chicken nuggets and meatloaf among other things. He puts them all in his mouth and it looks like he's eating them. But when I take him out of the highchair, I find all the meat in his lap.
With last night's meatloaf, he got a few bites in his mouth and then leaned over to put a few bites on the floor for Chili. It's Tyler's way of rewarding Chili for tolerating getting hit with the toy hammer and pulling on his ears. Tyler must have 10 different balls throughout the house. Chili loves balls, but somehow he has known to leave Tyler's toys alone. If we throw them, Chili will chase them but he won't pick them up like he does with his own tennis balls. A great baby and a great dog...what more could we ask for?
