THIS calls for a bath...

Macaroni and cheese + green peas + green beans = messy Reese


Reese probably only got about 1/2 a green bean and 2 noodles down but it sure did make a mess. (Side note: She's had NO appetite for food lately. I think it's because she's cutting her molar. I'm at a loss as to what to feed this child. Any suggestions?)

Check out this well-mannered child:
She always uses a fork and napkin and never drops any food on the floor.


The sink was the best place for this messy kid. And she had a blast bathing in there!
The funny thing was that she would try to grab the water and bring it to her mouth - she quickly realized that wasn't working and brought her mouth to the water for a sip!

Adorable! I always struggled with this but the experts say that some foods will have to be introduced up to 10 times before the kids will take a liking to it. Just keep trying.. I made the mistake of making separate meals for Roman but not with Dallon and Dallon is a better eater now by far! Rocco's picky..

TOO FUNNY!! Olivia does the same thing. There is enough food to feed an army on her tray and she's eats like 2 bites. Remember we are having the same problem with eating. I've started to belive everyone that she will eat when she's hungry. It's hard but I think it's true. We've had a little luck lately and I stress little. Just keep giving her what she likes-that's what we've been doing. I think it's the teeth too it feels like a mountain range in the back of Olivia's mouth and she's still cutting a tooth up front-my poor baby.

I think food issues are something every parent has to deal with. What about small pieces of a grilled cheese sandwich?!? Broc goes through really weird eating stages - it's so frustrating! Good luck...
