We officially have a teethy grumpy monster in our house!
Lunch - raw carrot, pate, nectarine. He sucked the pate of the carrot, and seemed to really enjoy it, but that was about it - we didn't even get to the pear and cucumber!
Dinner - spicy lamb patties, steamed broccoli and carrot. Ollie had a good go at the broccoli, but wasn't too interested in the pattie! Disappointing! It was really good to see him pick up a smallish bit of broccoli - with no stalk and put that in his mouth though. He couldn't have done that two weeks ago. The patties were from the Baby Led Weaning Cookbook, which has some great recipe ideas in it.
We've had a rough few days, I think mainly due to Ollie's teeth and our lack of good timing. It seems he has almost regressed in his interest in food, but I think that is partly the "harder" foods we are giving. I will make sure we have at least one easy finger food every meal, but also add on an interesting new part too.
*repeat to myself - it is not about how much he eats. It is fine if he isn't too interested some days*
