Squash Puree

Tonight John Warren had squash, and I'm happy to announce that we have our first veggie that he likes! Granted, this is only the second. Carrots did not go over too well last week, but we are moving in the right direction.

I held out the empty spoon and John Warren opened his mouth so I knew that he wanted to eat. I put just enough on the tip of his spoon that he could get a little taste. As I moved the spoon toward his mouth, he opened in anticipation. He cautiously closed his mouth testing the food for the first time. I watched and waited wondering if the avocado fasco would occure again. It took only a moment for him to decide that he liked squash, and he opened he mouth telling me to give him more!
