Thanks for the suggestions! She is really too little to reason with at this point, and although I do talk to her like she understands everything I say, she usually doesn't at this point (she is 22 months old). I will try getting more of her input in the future, however. I do try to get her to taste everything, but with some things that she is familiar with, those lips stay locked! Every now and then I can sneak in something by hiding it under a spoonful of mac and cheese, but if she finds it, the whole mouthful comes back out, and she won't anything else at all for fear I will try to sneak something else in on her. She will try some vegetables with dip, but usually ends up just licking the dip off and dipping the same piece of whatever over and over again. I am hoping she will outgrow some of this eventually, and if not, maybe soon she will understand bribery--no bread or dessert without eating some sort of vegetable!
