The eating wars

Since she started eating solid foods, Caroline has eaten almost everything we've given to her - grapefruit, olives, salmon, black beans...(in addition to the regular stuff - cheerios, applesauce, cooked carrots, etc.) All of a sudden, everything she has liked and eaten for months is suddenly taboo. She won't eat any vegetables - even the good-tasting ones strained from soup. She won't eat any meats or fishes - even her favorite- bologna. Tonight, the only thing we could get her to eat was some mandarin oranges, about 1/3 of a banana, cheerios, and a few goldfish crackers. It is so frustrating to see her refuse all of the foods that she has hungrily gobbled up for months! We are hoping and praying that she will outgrow this little stage quickly!
