Broadening Her Horizon!

 Abigail is definitely a picky eater, but she's slowly eating more of a variety. In the past, she has been hesitant to try new foods. You cannot force her to eat anything (and we don't!!)!! We ask her if she wants to try what we are eating and sometimes she says yes, but most of the time it's no and we respect that.  The other night she asked if she could have a salad for dinner. What?!? Ummm....ok!! We let her put whatever she wanted on her salad. Abigail picked spinach, feta, cheddar cheese, strawberries and sunflower seeds. Sounds pretty yummy, right?!? She ate most of it too!! So proud, so proud!! She did, however, say that she did not want a salad for dinner the next night haha. Baby steps!!
Since the salad, Abigail asked to try smoked salmon (on of my favorites!!), homemade zucchini chips and chicken salad AND she liked them all! The past couple of nights Abigail has requested ham for dinner. Our most wonderful Nanny gives Colin a ham every year around Thanksgiving (something Colin looks forward to forever!!) and Abigail tried it and loved that too! Abigail knows that Colin froze a little bit of it so she is requesting dibs!! I think Colin is regretting sharing his most precious ham with her haha ;-)
