oh ambi- so cute
i need some advice on picky eaters. adelaide used to eat anything i put in front of her. now she hardly touches anything unless it is milk or an apple. it has been going on for a week now and is getting old fast. she has been spitting out a lot of her food lately too half chewed. gross. any words of wisdom?

i just go with things we likes/will eat and sneak stuff into it, like: apple sauce mixed with pureed baby food vegetables, soy milk/ice/and protein powder shakes (since he doesnt eat meat, but he drinks this like crazy since it tastes like a treat), yogurt with baby food vegs. mixed in, any and all fruit, peanut butter on bread, fortified cereals for snacks, just be sneaky/creative with it.

Yup, that's Eden's favorite part about coloring also. She knows she's not supposed to. She puts the crayon up to her mouth, says, "no-no", and takes a BIG bite. BTW, good advice to Echo. I should take some of that.

Isn't it funny how something so unappetizing is so tasty to them?! Liza won't touch veggies or fruit but she will eat dog food by the handful! YUCK!!!
Love the pics, they say it all.

I love that innocent face! Love the pics. Good luck on your next race. You're doing AWESOME! I can't run it in that time. Time to get in shape I guess.

Oh, Dane went through this stage, and it lasted forever. He would literally bite the tips off. He thought it was great. I thought it was messy! Ambrose is so cute.
