Should kids that have 12-14 teeth each still be eating baby food? We have quite a dilemma on our hands with the Spanky's diet. Most kids supposedly grow out of being fed and the taste of baby food after they try "the real thing". Ours, on the other hand, at 17 months are still going strong with the baby food with only a few exceptions: Goldfish, Honeymaid Bees, canned pears, Cheerios, and waffles. So, we know they can feed themselves and can chew. Any other items are immediately chucked over the edge of their tray.
But we keep trying. This particular night we decided to sit with them at the table and eat as we gave them our dinner of roast, potatoes, and corn. Please disregard the messy counter tops in the background...I am more concerned with the mess that is about to end up on the floor and in their hair!
It was fairly successful, but we have not been so lucky with additional attempts. The next night we tried to give them leftovers, and they were less than thrilled.
