Holly,
How old are your babies? If they like the texture of cottage cheese, you might want to try a wet food like Wellness puppy (it's extremely soft) or I've read there is a mousse textured food by Royale Canin.
When Scarlett was super tiny, I had to hand feed her everything (including the wet food). Yuck. Thankfully, she outgrew that and now weighs in at a whopping 15 pounds (she's not a teapot, she's the whole darn tea service
Good luck.
