My, how things have changed! Friends & readers of this blog know that Peter was non-verbal for his first 3.5 years. We have also had a heck of a hard getting him to sit at the dinner table and eat ‘real food’. His staple food product has long been Pepperidge Farm Goldfish crackers.
In the past few months, Peter has started to eat a variety of foods, as they were introduced to him by his teachers at school. At home, he was remaining stubborn on this issue, and his diet was very limited and irregularly timed.
For the last 3 days, however, Peter ASKED for macaroni & cheese. We have been trying to get him to eat pasta for more than 2 years – and now he’s asking for it… and sitting at the table… and asking for more & more! Check out this video clip:
Way to go Peter!!!
Matthew has always LOVED pasta…we had to take away his mac & cheese when he went GFCF, but he still eats spahghetti (rice or corn-based) once or twice per week. Now – if we could only get him to eat fruits & veggies!!!
Wow!!! I love it – next, steak! LOL!
