Squash!

The books say to stick with the same food for a few days to make sure the kid can tolerate it.  But we made an executive decision to try something else.  We gave Arthur squash baby food, after 3 tries with the rice cereal.  We just couldn't take it anymore.

At first he was closing his mouth and moving away from it. Then dad tried some. Arthur thought this was hysterical. After that, he ate it right up.  He even ate his rice cereal a bit better later in the day.
