It's quite wonderful.

When we try to feed him purees, soup, khichdi, yogurt, anything that requires spoon feeding, he swats away the spoon and turn his head away. Sigh. But he eats finger food quite well so that's what he gets. We basically give him components of our own meals spread out in his high chair tray. <br /><br />Some examples: FruitNupurhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03890441057480820053noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10611609.post-52585452824030502692017-05-24T07:26:05.803-05:002017-05-24T07:26:05.803-05:00Manasi- Dosa that don't brown- I must say that...Manasi- Dosa that don't brown- I must say that's very mysterious!!
