Dinner These Days
This is pretty much what dinner these days looks like at our house:
Okay, so he doesn't get a teeny napkin. I just did that for the picture because I thought it was funny. He does, however, get a miniature version of our plates, also in porcelain, and a miniature fork, that is metal. His dinner consists of the same foods that we are having, only cut up in smaller pieces. It's really cool to be able to all sit down together for a meal of the same foods. We've been doing this for about the past month or so, and I have to say, it's been really nice to not have to deal with special baby meals. I don't have to make purees anymore! I still plan on doing fruits, because they're good to mix into his yogurt for breakfast smoothies. More often than not though he'll just have a waffle and some cut up fruit.
We're also starting to branch out into foods that I never thought I'd give him. I'd like to keep him on fruits and veggies and all that healthy stuff, but the truth of the matter is that if I want him to gain weight, those aren't going to cut it. Also, my diet doesn't entirely consist of those things, and he wants to eat what I'm eating. Therefore, he's been getting (within reason, of course) ice cream, chicken nuggets, french fries, cake, muffins, and Doritos.
I know. There went my Super Mom award. :)
