baby food: not a fan

Given Charlotte's insatiable appetite, her consuming love-affair with oatmeal, and the fact that we can't even hold her while eating dinner or she will lunge for our food, we were so excited to finally start her on baby food once she turned six months.  I just knew she'd love it.  Naturally, she hates it.  Well played, Universe. 

We started out with sweet potatoes, since they were Colin's first food and he loved them so much.  Probably assuming it was oatmeal, she started out game for this experiment.

Quickly realizing something was not quite right here.

No, but seriously, what is this?  Get it out of my mouth.

Are they serious with this, Colin?

Still irresistably adorable even with a face full of sweet potatoes.

Subsequent attempts have only gotten worse.  She will open her mouth for the first bite, but as soon as she discovers it isn't oatmeal, she clamps that little mouth shut and wants nothing to do with it.  I guess I should have expected this considering she and Colin have been opposites about just about everything else.

But this girl still loves her oatmeal.  Here's a sample of some of her sound effects while chowing down.
