Feeding Frenzy

Debi's theme for this week's Baby Picture Sunday is Feeding Frenzy - and what a coincidence - we just happened to have one of those at our house Friday night. It was one of those..."ah, I have no idea what we're having for dinner" nights. Frequently, though, Timmy doesn't want to wait until the family dinner is ready. While I'm getting dinner ready, he's usually in his highchair with some cheerios. Since he was being particularly grunt happy, I threw him a club roll to nibble on as well (oh...and some Tang - watered down, of course.) For some reason, he was still screaming for more and frankly I've had enough of his passing on normal baby food in his quest for ultimate flavor so I went searching in the fridge and decided it was time...time for a pickle.

And then he noticed the camera...
He may look like he liked it, but after a few nibbles he was bored, so I went for the failsafe disgusting biter biscuit, which he loved...but soon demolished and was screaming for more.

I knew he was screaming for meat and I didn't have a great variety to offer. I was supposed to have gone food shopping earlier, but the torrential downpour had kept me indoors. I figured, heck, he's had a pickle - why not some salami? But then I felt guilty and threw some macaroni & mixed veggies on his tray (not that he touched them of course...the last week he's been spitting back his veggies - Katie was at least 1 1/2 before she started that crap.)

Since it was a night of firsts...why not some M&M's for dessert?

He had no time to smile because he was very busy sucking down those M&M's. So all in all, it was a great well-balanced dinner. Unfortunately, the only food that got completely eaten was the cookie and candy.
