No More Gerber?

My little Hallie has decided that she does not like to eat baby food anymore. She LOVES eating cheerios and things she can pick up with her fingers, but does not like eating from a spoon. This happened suddenly about a week and a half ago. 

What do I do? What people food can I start giving her? She is only 9 months old.

  1. My Henry did that at about the same age. I don't blame them, it's nasty stuff. Canned veggies, peas, corn, green beans are all good finger foods. I've found canned works best because it's the softest. Bananas work best for fruit, but now that the melons are in season those are nice and soft too. Overcook a little pasta by a minute so it's a little extra soft and serve that. I started just serving him whatever we were having for dinner cut up small. I was surprised how much he could eat when I gave him a chance, even though he only has a few teeth and none of them matched up.

  2. Canned fruits/veggies are a great thing. Abby did the same thing. I gave Abby green beans and soft canned fruits and bread and she loved that. I would still maybe try to do baby foods though, but if she doesn't like it do the canned foods.
