Apple Eater

This afternoon Milo and I baked a French apple cake using some of the apples we picked yesterday. In a shocker of all shockers, Milo actually ate apple and enjoyed it!

Those of you who know Milo know that he does not like fruit, with the exception of prunes (which he does not even like in whole form, they have to be pureed). But in the spirit of trying new things, Milo's been a lot more adventurous with his food lately and tried a bit of apple while we were baking. He ate the sliver of apple I gave him and then proceeded to eat a couple more slices. I averted my eyes and looked away as Justin smiled, smirked, and then had to leave the room to let out a cheer. I also let Milo try a piece of apple sprinkled with cinnamon and sugar and he was downright gleeful. He said he'd eat apple if I included it in his lunch! I'll take it.

Now only if Calder would eat apples too. Tonight he barely ate the sugar-laden apples in his slice of cake. Zola, on the other hand, was eating grated apple by the fistful this evening. Ah. My little girl rocks!
