Raisins! She’s actually eating raisins! I’ve tried giving them to her before and she wouldn’t touch them. So this time I got sneaky and dipped them in peanut butter (plus I thought she’d think they were chocolate chips and at least give them a chance) which she liked, but then she just ate them alone and kept asking for more. I’m so glad to find another healthy option for snack time. I’m getting weary of trying to figure out what she’ll eat.
I’m at the point of deciding that she’ll have to eat what we’re having at a meal or she’ll just have to do without. Is that awful? I’m just tired of cooking 2 meals for lunch and 2 for supper, one for her and one for us. And all she eats is spaghetti and mac-n-cheese. Giving her mac-n-cheese all the time is grossing me out. It’s ok now and then, but every other day is not good.
The other night I made something a little spicy for me and Phil’s supper, so I was making chicken and beans for Clara to eat and spaghetti for Lily and thought, this is crazy…I’m making 3 meals! I can’t keep doing that. Especially with another baby in the mix. What if this is another picky one?
If anyone has any thoughts on this topic (what to do with a picky eater) I’d love some ideas. Believe me though, I’ve tried just about everything! Mom, should I just suck it up and resign myself to “pom fritz and peanut butter”? HELP!
