Hi Angela!! i wouldnt worry about food - all of my kids have been a pain in the butt when it came to "lump" transition, and a couple of them didnt want to know until they were nearly 1!! my latest is 8 months too and shes just the same, she will eat soft buscuits and crisps but proper food is a no no!! LOL little monkey!!!! Just give him finger foods every so often and another tip which i found to work quite well is purree HALF the jar of food/your own and just either mash the rest or if its a jar leave little lumps in, then they slowly get more used to having "bits" to contend with. Hope i've helped. xxxxxxxxx
