The Wearing of the Green {Beans}


After a month of failed attempts, Owen started eating rice cereal two weeks ago. He has become a champion eater so I decided to move him along to veggies. Last week (when this title was still relevant) Owen got his first taste of green beans. To say he disliked them would be an understatement. I could only get him to take a few bites and he definitely wasn't as voracious as he usually is, but we'll keep trying. James and I had our traditional St. Patrick's Day meal of corned beef, cabbage, potatoes, and carrots. We loved every bite!




Update - after a few days Owen got the hang of green beans, though he still makes this face with every bite he takes.

How is he still so darn adorable even with a "yucky" face? That's it - you need 10 more kids.

BEST PICTURES EVER. I cannot believe how strikingly beautiful that boy's eyes are. Definitely have 10 more kids.

Emma loathed green beans for virtually all of her infancy. Her digestive system didn't seem to like them all that much either, as I found out during numerous experiences with her southern hemisphere, if you know what I mean. ;)
