picky : by jean

lately, miles has been VERY picky with what he eats and how it's fed to him.  i can be feeding him the same piece of fish using chopsticks, but then if i switch and use a spoon, he won't open his mouth.  i would tell him, "miles, its the SAME thing, look!" and proceed to show him how i'm transferring from chopsticks to a spoon or vice versa, but still, no opening of the mouth.

i mean, seriously?!  i can't deal!  AND sometimes he just doesn't feel like eating what i feed him, but if i give him something to play with to occupy him and feed him, he'll eat. WTH?!  overall, he's a pretty good eater but man, some days i really lose my patience!  giving him a spoon or teething toy to play with while feeding, or if nothing else works, turning on sesame street usually helps.

what are some ways you guys get your kids to eat?
