Breakfast.. mini wheats and pear! Of course! I'm working on more varied breakfasts!

Lunch was at Nana & Poppa's so we took some french toast and avocado (mixed with baby rice for iron) to have on rusks). Oliver wasn't too distracted (it was just the two of us at the table) but he made quite a mess! Ate lots of avocado and some french toast!

Dinner was pork chops. I was hoping he could hold onto the chop and chew, but the chops I got were the wrong shape for that! Still, he loved the pork, he had a stray bit in his mouth that we was chewing en route to shower. We now have a cheek checkpoint in the shower every night!

We've got proper (but short still) little teeth through now, the two bottom ones. It will be interesting to see how that affects our mealtimes!

Wednesday 16th March

Lunch... carrot muffin, pate on toast, banana. Ollie still loves pate! He seemed to eat a good chunk today, yet it was different to last time he had it. Before it seemed almost an accident if he swallowed some, but today he was purposefully moving it around his mouth and swallowing!. Banana seemed quite slippery for him today, it was a bit green still I think.

Dinner.. random chicken casserole that I threw together very quickly... with chicken, apricot, broccoli, cauliflower and carrot. Ollie not so into it - had a munch on some carrot and broccoli but only after I pointed them out. (Which I try not to do in the spirit of not intervening...) Until then, he just blew raspberries at David and giggled. hah! Totally ignored the chicken, though I have to admit, far from my best work!

Friday 4th March

Argh what a day! 

Lunch timing all crap – out and I forgot his lunchbox. I got a chicken salad for lunch thinking he could share, but pieces too small. He did play with wome lettuce

Dinner – toast two ways. Pizza toast and French toast. Ollie played with his food, but didn’t eat. I was solo parenting as David was out!
