Day 8:  Could you hear the gagging tonight? Dinner was delicious. Lasagna rollups (cheese) with meat sauce I made a couple of weeks ago defrosted from the freezer, and a lovely green salad. I made the kids cut-up leftover lasagna noodles with butter, chicken nuggets, and vegetables. And, I didn't even make them try the lasagna (I thought this was very generous.) I just put some lasagna noodles on one side of the plate with some sauce on top.

Hannah cut a small piece of sauced noodle, ate it and gagged and gulped her milk, exclaiming, "eeeewww, I don't like sauce!" Then she asked for some bread. Nope...no bread unless you eat everything else on your plate. She ended her meal crying and wailing that she NEEDED bread and she would even eat some dipped in a little sauce instead of her noodles. Liar, liar, pants on fire. She gagged when eating that too.

Asher refused to even touch the sauced noodles. He likes the sauce when I give him meatballs. Why won't he eat the sauce on the noodles? He didn't stay at the table to find out. If you don't eat what is served to you, you go to bed. He was in his pajamas and in bed by 6:30

Outcome: Hannah got a grumpy sticker and got sent to her room to finish her crying fit and finish her homework. Asher got no sticker and got sent to bed.

I really thought we were making headway on our "Try New Foods Chart". Three steps forward...one step back.
