The Dietary habits of a 23 month old

 
Last night for dinner we had a peace offering. There were sliced up Weaver chicken burgers, crinkle cut fries covered in shredded cheese, there were also baby tomatoes and cucumber wedges. I have found that he dislikes slices of cucumber but will occasionally eat said vegetable if it's the size of a Mandarin orange. Last night was not one of these occasions. Chicken? Yes. Cheese? Yes. Fries? Yes. Everything else? No way Jose! After dinner yogurt was welcomed (does anyone else remember Apres Ski?), but grapes were chewed and spat out.

I'm not sure who scores in this one.

Considering I'm the pregnant Mama whose multi-vitamins make her vomit, and is eating Ramen Noodles and Nutella on toast regularly, not so sure I have the moral high ground yet. But hey food makes me sick right now, if I can keep it down I eat it! And besides since when do mums need the moral high ground to be right? ;-)

Taking the advice of Shannon and will be adding more vegetables into Husby's diet to see if the little parrot takes to it!

  1. Just to be clear, by eventually, I meant at some point in adulthood. :)
    My daughter prefers cucumbers in spears, but they have to be peeled. I think she pretends they are pickles, which she really, really loves.
