AJ and Apples.   All I can say is <screws up face>

It was so funny.  We've tried two varieties now and each time he screws up his little face and looks longingly at us - why are we punishing him!

I video taped it today because it was just so funny.

Suzi went out and mashed some banana. 

I taped the result of that. 

I can't wait to share that with you!  It was a totally different reaction!

We have, under suggestion from Janine Rosomoff, selected a further 8 varieties of apple.  We'll just try a different one each day.  Maybe eventually AJ will decide he likes or will accept apple.

Suzi is also going to try and find some fresh peaches.  I suggested the tinned peaches in natural juice.  She said "I'd like something where I know what's in it."

I said "You're telling me you know what they inject into peaches?"

What ever happened to "Mother Nature Knows Best?"

His recent growth is probably the steriods in the bananas used to ripen, increase their size and make them last during transport.

Although I'll admit he doesn't seem to have done much beyond the last weeks growth spurt.  He seems to have settled again.

[ I just had a strange thought pop into my mind from nowhere :- perhaps AJ's dislike to Apples is Biblical? ]
