First Try at Peas....Hmmmm, Do You Think He Likes Them

Uugh....This is horrible....

No, please Mommy, not another bite!!

What is this stuff and where is my rice cereal???

As you can see, Luke was not a big fan of peas. We have only attempted rice cereal with b-milk in it and he LOVES this. We were told start with the blan veggies before fruit or they will never go back to vegetables. Well, we started with peas....because what is more disgusting looking and smelling than peas (and Chris would not allow me to start with Spinach...he says it is a worthless vegetable). Anyway, after two bites, Chris wanted me to stop. This boy is only going to eat sweets if his father has anything to do with it. I mixed the peas with rice cereal and b-milk and he liked it a little better....well I would not say liked it, maybe instead tolerated it!!
Well, in a couple of days (after he shows no rashes, fevers, etc.....we will be trying carrots. I think he will like this more. Zach loved carrots and sweet potatoes so much he began turning orange in color....oops!!
We will keep you posted on the food obstacle course we are on....all I can say is at least he likes eating.
We go for a weight check on Friday....pray all is well.
Update: We went one day without Thickit because we ran out and boy did that make the difference. It was a much spittier day. Luke can go 6 ounces with Thickit, burp, and nothing come out! Obviously his little system is maturing because this never could have happened before. One more month and he should grow out of his reflux!!

  1. That's funny! Julianne actually likes peas which is weird. I've now been trying meat and she hates it! I have to mix her meat with a veggie to get her to eat it! I don't think a vegetarian in this meat eating household will work! :)
