My 10 month old is anti table food!
My 10 month old now has 5 little teeth. We started her on cheerios when the first one started to pop out. But through her 5 teeth, she is still resistent to eating her solids! She is still being breast fed part time and also drinks from a sippy cup....in fact totally skipped bottles with nipples. But when it comes to solids she will only eat cheerios. Every day, we end lunch and dinner with a ton of splats of food on the floor, with her only eating about 3 table spoons. We have tried veggies, fruits, meats in baby food form (store bought and home made.) She want nothing to do with it! This is a tough tough one since my 4 year old was super easy getting to table food!

Hectic life in a hectic world and trying to stay sane enough to make dinner.

You're not alone. My daughter was the same way. She finally started eating a little bit of finger foods at 8 months since she refused most any baby food and didn't like anything mushy. She also refused the bottle. And we tried all the same things you did.
We just kept offering. She's a great eater now. I think for her it was the textures that she had to get used to. She's just now starting to like mashed potatoes and she's three.
At that age, if she's getting breast milk, she doesn't need a ton of food. It's more about trying things. (Moms please tell me if I'm wrong).
