Avocado

So the banana troubles passed quickly. One day off the nana train, and the poop train was back on the tracks. So now we know, all nanas all the time, not such a good idea. Nanas in moderation, as with all the good things in life.

We tried avocado yesterday. As I said before, I do not care for avocados that much. Maybe if dressed up (read: disguised) as guac its ok. But plain avocado? Yuck. So I mashed up a ripe avocado half for the Critter, and tasted it. Still yuck. But I figured, hey, people like this (unlike baby rice library paste) so I fed some to the Critter.

The face she made was priceless. It closely resembled the face I made when I tried it 2 minutes earlier. Yuck.

I saved some for Mr. p to try, to make sure it wasn't just a bad avocado. Nope, that's the way avocado tastes, he said. Yuck, replied me and the Critter. My theory holds true, if Mommy likes it, the Critter generally does too. If Mommy thinks yuck, so does the Critter. And no, the Critter does not see or hear me saying yuck, she comes by her yuck honestly.

So we ate peas instead. Totally not yuck. Yum! Apples and pears to come.

  1. I'm glad the poop train is back on track!
    That's so funny about the avocado. I LOVE them, but my DH hates them, so it will be interesting to see which side our little one takes...

  2. I love hearing about the critter and all of her new experiences with food. And I don't blame her for not liking avocado...blech.

  3. lol, i love avocados! we have some feeding issues, getting my daughter to eat is... difficult. i have heard that sometimes you have to offer them things five or six times before they eat it, but so far it hasn't held true for us.
