What do your Los eat?

my lo swats if I try to feed her baby food(purées) but she'll eat finger food. I'm thinking about switching her to full on finger foods, but sometimes she will throw the finger foods. So I was seeing what everyone else's baby is doing.

His favourites though are:
- avocado, carrots, banana, melons, berries, toast with (or without) peanut butter (and jam), crackers, stew meat, scrambled egg, waffles, pancakes, French toast (some of those with syrup)
**he feeds himself all of the above
- yogurt, oatmeal with applesauce (both homemade), soup
**these are spoon fed
If it's soft enough for a kid to gum, then I just make sure it's a size he can pick up and figure out how to eat.
Somedays I can't prep food fast enough for the speed at which he consumes.
LO gets pb&j (usually strawberry or raspberry) on white or whole wheat.
He also eats egg salad sandwiches and chicken salad.
He's also had salmon sandwiches and grilled cheese.
Most sandwiches he takes them apart but eats it all eventually.
(And he eats the crust unlike his big brother. Lol)
The only thing we ever spoon feed is yogurt, and oatmeal if I make it too runny. If I make the oatmeal thick then I drop clumps of it on his tray and he feeds himself.
wow sandwiches! I guess I'm a bit behind. I just bought puffs for the first time today.
LO does get purees when I make them, and he gets to try almost anything he wants off my plate. (although he really can't chew at all yet). His staple food and main source of nutrition is still formula.
My LO is pretty much all finger foods now. She doesn't even really like the oatmeal anymore. I make a lot of meatballs for quick lunches or dinners and most of the time she gets what we eat at dinner unless we're late.
I forget who was asking about dinners or adding a third meal if the dAy( and I'm too lazy to read through cause baby didn't sleep last night) but it took us a long time to get LO to eat a real dinner. I started with a snack earlier in the afternoon and once her sleep shifted to later in the evening the snack became dinner lol. It'll happen.
