Bird Mouth

We have recently started feeding Canaan. We started out with oatmeal, which he loves almost as much as his bottle. He is such a good eater: when he is ready for a bite, he opens his mouth up as big as it can get- just like a little bird. After a few weeks of oatmeal, we moved on to his first vegetable: green beans. He was not impressed! His face scrunched up and he started gagging. I thought he would eventually get used to them. I was wrong! We tried them for 3 days, until he just started crying when we fed him. So, the green beans went in the freezer and I cooked and blended some sweet potatoes for him. Canaan loves sweet potatoes! We’ve started him on a few fruits, but he really loves those potatoes and oatmeal more than anything else. Last night I made an asparagus-potato blend. We’ll see what he thinks about those!
