Becoming a Foodie

Mark your calendars, we had an eventful food-related day:

Anson has finally accepted that raisins are tasty. I have accepted that from here on out I'll be doomed to always step on the one raisin that doesn't make it into his mouth, squishing it into a sticky glob on the floor. Good days will be the days that the raisin doesn't get stuck in the tread of my shoes, and I don't track stickiness all through the house.

Anson tasted grapes for the first time... and for the first time, he has not rejected a new food just because it's new!

Anson ate the same dinner as his parents, for the first time. I made a very Mommy meal of a roast with potatoes and carrots. Anson was served his mini roast and veggies on his Mickey Mouse plate (thanks, Auntie D!). He insisted upon using a fork as well, and was quite successful, the Little Man... Until he got to the pieces Mama cut too small, and then gave up completely. Dessert for Mama was carmel corn (Thanks, J!). Dessert for Anson was pear & kale yogurt. Which he decided made a most excellent lotion, and liberally applied it all over. He got a bath in the sink.
