Love Me Some Broccoli

When we first started giving Jake solids, he loved peas and green beans. He kinda liked carrots, sweet potatoes, and squash. He kept getting sick and throwing up the green veggies and soon stopped liking them. He would refuse to eat them. One little taste and he would spit them out. Squash and sweet potatoes soon became his favorites and that's all the veggies he would eat. His little nose started turning orange. When he graduated to table food I tried green beans and carrots. He wanted no parts of either.

One night last week Bill and I had broccoli and cheese with whatever we were having for dinner. We thought we'd put some on Jake's tray to see if he would eat it. He gobbled it up. He would sort through all the stuff on his tray and only pick up the green stuff. So, I got some fresh broccoli and cheese and made him his own last night with his hamburger meat. He was enjoying the meat until I put the broccoli and cheese down. He would only pick up the green stuff again. He LOVES it!
