Tastes and Preferences..

Past:
Since Dillion started his solid intake when he was 6month old, he had never rejected or showed preferences for food served to him except for PLAIN WATER which is still in his No. 1 hate list.
People have commented how easy it is to cook and feed him when we are out.
It was a breeze and his tummy was like an endless pit..
When we let him taste chili/tom yum/bitter gourd/lemon etc.. he showed no objections.


Now:
He seem to be showing preferences and his taste bud have changed. Now that I the one preparing his meals.. I been giving him different variety of main dish. For e.g. there will be either noodles or rice in a day. (i.e. there won't be 2 rice meal in a day)

Recently he been starting to reject :
Cheese
Slices of apples- takes a few pieces at most (he preferred puree)
mashed potato with cheese

Whenever I feed him.. i gets worried if he may reject the food that i painstakingly cooked for him.
Friends whom know me well.. that i'm not domestically trained and i'm a disaster in the kitchen.

Now that i'm able to cook a simple and decent meal for my son.. I think i have come a long way.

There was few occasions that D did not show interest in eating.. but i tried and coax him and he manage to finish most of it.

I don't need praises from my son.. I hope the can grow up healthily under my care:)
