Eating Veggies

We have been on a wonderful adventure of trying new vegetables lately.  Jack is still trying to decide if he likes vegetables.  He LOVES cereal and oatmeal and can't get enough of it, so we thought that he would love anything we feed him.  Vegetables have been a different story.  We started with sweet potatoes, and Jack didn't love them, but didn't hate them either.  Next we tried squash and he absolutely hated it...pursed lips, scrunched up nose, and screaming followed the 3 bites of squash that actually made it into his mouth.  We moved on to carrots, and Jack has really liked them, although he's not as enthusiastic about eating them as he is about his oatmeal and cereal.  Our next veggie is going to be peas, so we'll see how it goes.  Here are a few pics of our picky little eater....


"Yuck!  What did my mom just put in my mouth?!"
 
"Please get that spoon away from me!"

"Seriously, mom, you're still trying to make me eat this mush?"

"I think Lucky will enjoy these vegetables more than I do!"
