Picky Eater

Trey is getting better and better about feeding himself with utensils. He knows how to use a spoon, and while he sometimes has trouble eating vegetables or larger foods, he is pretty good at eating yogurt. He's also learning how to use a fork but doesn't quite have the stabbing motion yet.

Overall, Trey is a pretty good eater, but he generally does not like fruit (with the exception of bananas, which he eats for breakfast almost every morning). A colleague at work suggested masking unpopular foods with yogurt; her kids, she says, will eat anything covered with yogurt. So I tried this with blueberries. But, alas, Trey saw through my scheme and either picked around the blueberries or spit them out.
