As many know, we've been having a difficult time getting Kate to eat healthy, let alone eat at all. I've never in my life seen a baby be able to detect sugar like she does. Its as if she has a detector in side of her that goes of the second sugar is in the room, even if its in the cupboards. If she even hears a package of cookies being open, she comes running. She doesn't even need to see what it is. I must make it clear that this ability she has is only with real sugar, and not natural sugar. We will place a wide variety of fruit in front of her, red strawberries, green kiwis, blueberries...and she won't touch it if her life depended on it. We even put mashed potatoes next to a cake, trying to sneak "frosting" mashed potatoes, and she will spit it out as fast as she can like she is ready to die. I did trick her today. I gave her a box of yogurt covered raisins. You should have seen her prance around like she was the coolest kid, as if I had given her a box of white candy.
SO.....Kate is on her first diet. She isn't allowed to have sugar.. (The girls think it is so funny to sneak her a dum dum).
