He Eats!!

He eats, he really really eats! We are still making progress with Peanut Butter Blake. We have an agreement that he is allowed to have his peanut butter sandwich for lunch but has to eat what we are eating for dinner. We have one snag in our program, though, being a creature of habit it proved to be too much to have a new item each day. He always requests the same thing he ate the night before. Soo, we allow him 2 nights with the same "new" food choice, then after 2 nights it switches to a different choice. At this point I am ecstatic that he is getting some meat into his diet, so however it happens is fine with me. He has always needed to be eased into new situations, so this is no exception.
He has enjoyed pork chops, spinach & asiago cheese chicken sausage (I know, brave, right?), and chicken nuggets. Even if he drinks a glass of milk and a glass and a half of water with dinner, by golly he gets it down.
And Bryce is still our eating champ. He plows through a couple bowls of salad before dinner even starts, gobbles up his meal, then polishes it off with a grapefruit for dessert. What a guy!
