Adventures in Baby-eating

I'm sad to report that my skills at babyfood-making are no longer needed. Campbell is officially a table food eater. We're using up the last of the purees and combos that I made but she really prefers table food. Here are a few fun pictures from her recent food experiences...
Spaghetti

Pizza (notice the sauce on her forehead and the concentration on her face as she pulls my hand closer)
Cupcake
For those of you who are interested in what toddlers eat...here is a list of some of Campbell's favorite foods:
-cheese toast (her #1 fave)
-cheese quesadilla
-1/2 of a garden burger
-fruits (she loves berries of any kind, kiwi, hunks of banana to gnaw on, peaches, apple, applesauce- unsweetened of course, pears)
-veggies (I often use frozen and just microwave a serving size with a small amount of water for about a minute. Her fave is peas.)
-yogurt (full fat, plain, sometimes mixed with fruit)
-cottage cheese (also full fat)
-pita bread with hummus

We do try to feed her whole grains and mostly organics...but we've gotten a lot more relaxed about the organic part as she's gotten older and bigger. Which you can probably tell by the pictures of her eating pizza and a cupcake...

And...just an image from one of my favorite movies of all time and the inspiration for the title of this post...

Yay to table food! Spaghetti, bananas, and cheese toast are all Anna's favs too. We also recommend pancakes, chicken and ground turkey. Maybe Campbell can teach Anna a thing or two about eating peas. She won't eat them, but she does like broccoli.

I thought Goonies was your favorite! Or is it Robbie who's posting? We sure enjoyed Campbell loving her meals! And desserts!
