A journey through the wild ride of being a first time mother

You can read every book on the shelf about being a parent and what to expect with your new baby, but the only true preparation is experiencing it first hand.

Picky Eater

I think we have a picky eater in the making. Kendall so far has loved all the food she tried, the first time she had it. But she no longer likes sweet potatoes. Jason and I were at some friends for dinner the other night and i had brought along a jar of baby food sweet potatoes for her. She started to get crabby cause she was hungry so i made up her food and started feeding it to her (when she gets lunch she has baby oatmeal and a fruit and dinner she has baby rice and a vegetable) the first couple bites she was OK with it and then after that she started making funny faces and would cry every time i stuck the spoon into her mouth. So I gave her a drink and she stopped crying and I went to feed her more and as soon as it was in her mouth she way crying again. I gave her a cheerio and she stopped crying, i put the spoon back in her mouth with more sweet potatoes and she started crying again. So needless to say i didn't finish giving them to her. She ended up having mashed potatoes (we had made for our dinner) and cheerios.


Last night for dinner she was doing the same thing with carrots. My dad was feeding her while i went on a short hike with my mom and sister. He was giving her green beans and carrots and rice. She gobbled down the green beans and rice but every time he tried to feed her carrots she would have a little fit. We only have so many baby food options so hopefully she doesn't get to picky. The funny part about it all is, the first time she had both sweet potatoes and carrots she loved them cause they are a little sweeter then the green vegetables and the squash. Pretty soon here in the next couple weeks she will get to try meat for the first time, that should be interesting to see how she reacts to that.
