Davis' Delicious Dinner

Tonight's Menu
  • Wheat bread (this kid loves his grains)
  • Organic toasted oats (aka pseudo-Cheerios, an obvious favorite)
  • Corn (num num num)
  • Lima beans (popping them like candy)
  • (fish that was completely ignored)
  • Whole milk!
Our hungry hungry hippo was eating like a champion tonight.  The menu he ended up with was, let's say, eclectic . . . but he seemed to enjoy it!  As he was washing it down with some water, I suggested that we put a little whole milk in a cup and just see what he thought about it.  This was his first time having whole milk, and we gave it straight from the fridge (not warmed up at all).  I was curious to see what his reaction would be.

He seemed a little surprised at the first taste, but he loved it!  He was spilling it all over himself trying to guzzle it down, so Greg took the cup away to fill it more (so he wouldn't have to tip it as much), and Davis protested frantically until he got it back!

I was surprised and happy to see that he took to it so well, without worrying about warming it up or mixing it with breastmilk at first to get him used to it.  Now I'm hoping that it doesn't give him some kind of horrible rash or anything and then he continues to like it!

  1. Ignored the fish and chowed down the lima beans and organic oat circles, huh? Obviously on his way to becoming a fine little vegetarian!

  3. He loves meatloaf, though, so that would probably be a funny kind of vegetarian. ;)
