The old switcheroo

I seem to spend a good part of the morning preparing food for Maud in the quest to find something that she likes and is prepared to open her mouth for. It also helps if she swallows the food and doesn't let it dribble out slowly hoping i wont notice.

She has aquired the taste for water recently and will happily accept her spout cup so this has since been utilised as a decoy to get the food in too.
It may look a bit devious but it's either this or spend 2 hours trying to get her to open her mouth.

Today i set the the camera on the tripod on the kitchen table and let it run.

and no i'm not feeding her chopped chilli pepper or anything this is freshly stewed pear....i think there might be a career in acting for my little Maud.

hahaha! make my eyes water just watching it ! Poor Maud hehehehe
does she actually swallow that spoonful or rather just let the molecules disslove in her mouth??!!!

i saw a friend do a trick where you put appple puree at the front end of the spoon but back load the carrot or spinach behind... sneaky!

Great one Matt - but have you thought of the future consequences...? 'Sorry darling, can't go to that little restaurant, there's nobody to watch me..'!
