Aaru on Solids

My elder son, Sanju, was a darling when it came to food. He had his own favourite choices but he would eat when it was put before him. But the second one has a mind of his own when it comes to food. According to him, meals are over-rated. I just made a list of all the ways in which he is unlike his brother:

1. He refuses to sit on his high chair and prefers mummy's hip as the best place to have a meal.

2. He needs continuous live entertainment during his meals. He prefers a non-stop repetitive rendition of '1...2...Buckle my shoe' especially during meals involving veggies.

3. He prefers the plain Cerelac Rice and cannot understand why in the world he can't have it more than once a day!

4. He has perfected the art of shaking his head 'no' and loves to perform especially when mummy hovers a spoon in front of his face.

5. All said and done, he just does not understand why he should have any other food when he can have the great perfect yummy mummy milk that also gives him a chance to snuggle close to her. Boo to solids!

So, you can now understand what a tough job each meal is proving to be.
