progress

An update for those of you who've been thinking on my food situation and giving helpful suggestions... Last night I made a casserole with spiral spinach pasta, sauce, sausage, and mozzarella cheese; he didn't love it by any means, but ate it without any big fits. I think it helped that he had a very defined time limit...they've been going to a kids' program at our old church that he really likes, and I told him if he gave me any hassles or wasn't done when it was time to go, he'd be staying home. He ate it quickly (along with a spinach salad and applesauce), and was out the door in no time.

It's progress...

if it's any consolation... Malachi for years wouldn't eat anything with red sauce... spaghetti, lasagna, even had trouble with pizza. Last night I made lasagna and he gulped it down, even said it was good... it took a long time, over a year even, but making him eat what was in front of him, or letting him be hungry if he threw it up, finally made a difference!
