So I started my son on solids at about 5 months, went straight to veggie purees and have slowly added in new tastes every couple of days - but I've fallen into a rut now of feeding him basically the same thing every day - pears either alone or with oat cereal for breakfast, some sort of pouch for lunch, and homemade baby food (some variation on a green, a starchy veg, meat and a rice/quinoa mix pureed) for dinner. I think he is still getting a pretty nice variety of foods and textures (the homemade baby food is like risotto texture but the pouches are still basically puree), but he must be gettin bored.

Can you tell me what your 8 month old was eating, so I can start incorporating some new stuff? He is NOT interested in finger foods. I try every day and he just plays with them/throws them on the floor. The most he will do is lick something, he's never succeeded in getting a finger food into his mouth and eating it, though literally every other thing in the world goes in his mouth immediately upon being picked up.

Any advice? Thanks!
