Please No Peas

Food Checklist: So far Hannah likes rice, oats, butternut squash and acorn squash. Hannah does not have a taste for wheat, barley, and as of tonight: peas. The acorn squash takes gold medal prize for favorite vegetable... (we baked the squash in water, scooped it into a blender, and froze it into an ice-cube tray)... As part of the evening routine, we get Hannah in her high chair and do dinner between 5 and 5:30 pm. We are feeding Hannah one or two "cubes" of squash before she settles into a mixture of 2 tablespoons rice cereal and 1 tablespoon oats cereal... So far we haven't tried any funky mixtures of sweet and savory, but after her rejection of peas this evening, we may have to try some unlikely mixtures to see if she will eat the foods she does not like if they are served in disguise... For now, though, it looks like mom & dad are gonna be eating some pea soup. Next up: potatoes.... stay tuned...

Can I sell those at Reggae on the River? I bet I'd get $10 each!
