I have a 14 month daughter that .wants to finger food but will only eat the gerber snack foods?

She has 4oz of milk (still in a bottle) whole milk mixed with formula- she will not take plain whole milk- working on the cup thing but needs the milk and nutrients- because she is only 19 pounds. She still wants me to feed her while she finger paints with the gerber purees (fruits and some veggies)- it has to be completely purreed though she will not eat anything that is mushy. She wants to feed herself finger foods but will only eat the crunchy gerber snack line (yogurt bites, puffs, animal crackers, wagon wheels, toast, dried fruite). I have tried regular table foods put on her tray and she will only mush them but will not eat or try anything except for those gerber snacks. She only eats in her highchair on a regular schedule- she gets a snack after her afternoon nap at around 2:30 or 3:00 in the afternoon and is ready for dinner at 5:00... She has a twin how can I get her to try other foods so I can feel like I can really push on stopping the bottle with formula?
