Eating Machine

Elizabeth has developed strange habits for eating. Although this is typical of most toddlers, she does it in her own way. Most 1-year-olds love fruit juice and other sweets. Elizabeth will eat almost anything EXCEPT sweets. Today, she took to tomato juice. Last week, she enjoyed a sushi dinner at her grandmother's (but not the pie and ice cream we had for dessert). She does love milk and Cheerios, so I'm not too paranoid about her food preferences.


She's also become an independent little person suddenly. She wants to feed herself, and will refuse food given to her (mostly). Additionally, she is particular about putting things in containers, then taking them out, and making sure some surfaces stay clear - especially those at her eye-level. She's still working on walking, but I think she's just waiting until she can do it perfectly.
