Had to share this...

I am syringe feeding Beanie every day now and last night she
was waiting patiently but instead of the syringe I brought her
a large leaf of Mustard greens. She was very interested, tongue
flicking and extremely active. She would not take it from
my hand though so I laid it on her shelf in front of her. She
bent down and I am thinking, yes, yes, come on, come on, pick
it up! My hand was placed next to it on the shelf. Then , I
couldn't believe it! She took her nose and pushed the green
into my hand and rubbed my hand with her snout. My mouth
dropped and I had to laugh. Then I fed it to her. Soon it will
be 8 months of this.

She won again! Just had to share this story, I wish I would
have gotten it on videotape.

Well shes sure got you trained!! If shes eating full greens and stuff (not just pureed from a syringe)from your hand, well thats better then refusing to eat from a syringe. silly girl
