what adam eats now

We are just starting our 3rd week and Adam now eats:
1. Cheese
2. Macaroni and cheese
3. Grilled cheese
4. Broccoli and cheese
5. Banana
6. Peaches
7. Yogurt
8. Chocolate pudding
9. Applesauce

It's awesome after 9 days!
That's roughly 32 one hour therapy sessions.

We have learned that Adam is a quick learner, it has taken him only two meals to be okay with eating a new food.  We have learned that Adam is stubborn and will try all the tricks he's got. When his yelling, hitting, spitting and vomiting didn't work, he tried new stuff like: chewing slowly, turning his head to spit out the food thinking that you or the people behind the mirror or the video camera can't see him, he also will smear the food into his shirt thinking that will end "the bite".

Tomorrow is the family meeting and then we will be brought into the therapy sessions and trained. I am nervous and hope that Adam does not smell fear.
