Then there is Cole. He became interested in food at around 10 months or so... VERY interested in food. And not the baby food type... the REAL deal. He still does not have any teeth, but it doesn't seem to bother him. :) Little boys are in an eating league of their own!!! Maybe you can relate....
- When it's time to eat, little boys kick their feet and flail their arms until their food is on their plate.
- When little boys run out of food they scream or squeal until they get more grub (forget any signing that they have been taught).
- Little boys can wake up from a dead sleep in the drive thru at DQ for a sweet treat.
- Instead of using a tidy pincer grip to get a bite, little boys take bites by the handful... usually with both hands full, one after the other.... the snarfing technique.
- A little boy's food mess is not contained to just the hands and face... you have to clean a boy up all the way to his armpits.
- Food truly makes this little boy VERY happy! :)

Praise the Lord for a good eater! Sounds like you can relate to the picky eater scenario too. Both our girls are pretty choosy about what they eat. One won't touch a vegetable with a ten foot pole and the other only wants to eat vegetables. Can't win;)
That photo of Cole eating is sooooo cute. Our Daniel sometimes goes several days feigning disinterest in food and then will focus a stare on a far wall, and like a little robot shovel in an amazing amount. It's as though he's saying, "I'm not doing this to please you, ya' know. It's not about you at all."
