Yesterday my dad decided we needed to eat some things from the garden. So we went outside and picked some corn, an eggplant, and a butternut squash. We told Caleb what everything was and he, of course, repeated it perfectly. Then we brought everything back into the house and started cutting up the squash. He kept saying, "SQUASH!" over and over again. Then when we turned around we saw that he had picked up a piece and tried chewing on it.
We just started laughing, because the poor kid doesn't have any teeth, and he just sat there knawing on it. So I took some pictures, since I thought Parker might wanna see this. He'll try to eat anything, he just can't bite it. He eats all kinds of things outa the garden, cuz Grandpa helps him. One time he walked in the house holding a stick of ruhbarb and he was just chewing on it.! Thanks grandpa! He also eats fresh green beans, and of course his favorite.....tomatoes! He'll bury his face right into those things to try and get a bite. He ends up covered in juice. Usually we'll just bite into it without completely breaking away the bite from the tomato, and then we let him bite it off. He's pretty good. What a cutie! He's such a joy!
