Yum Yum Yum! Cutie Pie loves to eat. He's making the transition from baby food to big boy food. Today he stole my sandwich right off the table. I'm not kidding. I put my plate in the middle of the coffee table thinking I could nibble on it in between building giant block towers for Cutie Pie to knock down. The next thing I knew, his little paws were pulling the bread up to his mouth. I laughed so loudly it made him jump. But it didn't slow him down from shoving the whole piece of bread into his mouth.
I think Cutie Pie might be part chipmunk. At mealtime, I hand him his little bite sized soft foods a few bites at a time. He puts them in his mouth and makes chewing motions. Everything appears normal. Next thing I know, he's coughing and choking, he opens his mouth and spits out a huge glob of food that he had been hoarding in his cheeks. Da Da is on to him. He started squeezing Cutie Pie's cheeks to make sure they were empty before dispensing Cutie Pie's next bite. That Da Da is so smart.
Meals have become adventures lately. Sometimes they are great. Sometimes they end in disaster. Cutie Pie is teaching us that he has difficulty eating chunky foods. No matter how thin the baby food is. If there is any type of solid mixed in, even if it's just rice, he will choke on it and make himself sick. Cutie Pie has been trying to teach us this lesson for several weeks now but Mommy has been very slow to catch on!
Sometimes, especially after a particularly horrifying coughing episode, I think that Cutie Pie is just not yet ready to eat big boy food. Then I go his school and see him eating chicken or green beans with no problem at all. Maybe Cutie Pie just chokes on MY food; already a critic.
