I sure hope so!
We have noooooo problems with Brenna eating anything anymore. Dang - the girl can put away some food now! Here's a picture of a sample plate for her at lunch.

She loooooves baked ham. Will usually eat at least one, if not two full slices of it. She also likes cheese, macaroni (of any sort), and alll fruits (peaches, pears, and oranges especially, though tonight she ate probably 1/8 of an entire cantaloupe). She likes grilled chicken bits too. And mashed potatos and sweet potatos. Oh, and hamburger meat. I mean, anything!
Have you ever watched a real skinny homeless dog eat? They scarf it down as if someone is about to take it away? That's how Brenna eats. We can't just lay out all her food - she will choke herself I swear! So we give her a little bit at a time to try to make her sloooooow down. Usually after we 'cut her off" (as we like to say) of the normal food or when she's eaten it all - lol - we let her finish up with crackers or cheerios or breadstick/roll (if we're eating out). She will eat an endless amout of that food group. Seriously - she would probably eat an entire box of crackers if left up to her.
On the plate you saw above, I was liberal with the crackers I put on there. And she ended up getting some veggie sticks on top of that. (like chips - crunchy veggie snacks) Then everytime you go to wipe her face, take her bib off, or get her out of the high chair (signaling dinner is over), she starts crying. I'm hoping this is a growth spurt!
