Gavin was asking for some bread on the way home from the Discovery Center today, so I decided to try and make him a sandwich. To my surprise, he ate it! He ate almost the entire thing too! I was so happy since he has been a VERY difficult eater the past week or so. He also ate a container of baby food green beans (yes, he still eats baby food! it's the only way I can get him to eat vegetables other than cucumbers, and as long as he's willing to eat it, I'm willing to buy it and feed it to him!), and TWO go-gurts (we're out of his regular yogurts, but it was a good thing since he thought it was something new and different). After that, he ate a small slice of watermelon and then asked to get down from his booster seat. About 5 minutes later, he came out of the pantry asking for some goldfish crackers. I guess his appetite is back (and I am definitely NOT complaining!)
I think I've figured out what was causing his eating problems this past week, though. His top right two year old molar is coming in. He was poking around in his mouth while I was reading him his stories before nap, so I stuck my finger in his mouth to see what he was poking at and I felt a sharp little point coming out. Hopefully, the rest of his two year old molars won't give him as much trouble as this one has. Maybe that's why he has been SO cranky the past week???? (I can only hope it was because if his behavior this past week is the beginning of the terrible twos, then I am in for some HARD times!!!!)
Here's a video of Gavin enjoying his first chicken sandwich!
