FOOD!!

As some of you may or may not know, Cole won't eat solid food.  We have been trying to get him to eat solids on a daily basis (minus a few breaks here and there) since he was 4 months old and he is now 7 months.  We have tried everything you can imagine....rice cereal, oatmeal, baby food (veggies and fruits), mixes of cereal and fruits, watering down baby food and putting it in a bottle, puffs, cheerios, real food (matzo ball soup, mashed potatoes, mini pasta), and even the baby food that you squeeze out and suck.  Nothing.  If we are lucky enough to sneak (and I DO MEAN sneak) a bite in his mouth he spits it right back out.  Finally our pediatrician reccommended that we take him to the Pediatric Feeding & Swallowing Center @ Loudoun Hospital.  I called today to make our appointment and they can get us in as early as next Wednesday 12/22..YAY!!!!  SO EXCITED that my baby might finally be able to eat food soon :) :)
