Feeding Ben

Ben started on solid foods a couple of weeks ago and he's still trying to decide if he likes them.  So far, he's just had rice cereal, bananas, and butternut squash.  Like with Dan, I'm making his food with the Beaba baby food maker.  It's a good product--still going strong, two years later!  When Ben eats, he's very enthusiastic about the first couple of bites but after that, I have to trick him into opening his mouth.  He ends up with more food all over his face than in his stomach by the end of the meal!  But it's nice to have him sitting at the table with the rest of us, so we'll keep at it.
