Goodness Cathie, you'd never know he'd been ill. 

Enfys has discovered pepperoni.  Heaven help me, I know it's just salt and fat but she loves it.  ;)

MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMm pepperoni- I love it too. ahhhhhh. Does she just eat it outright, or does she eat it on pizza? mmmmmmm

 I know, Nick's appetite is really good. He is really "sturdy" not fat, but wicked muscular and has a 6 pack stomach- LOL- go figure! When he was sick, he barely ate a thing, but he did drink juices/milk with coaxing. He had an IV, but not for hydration, for his antibiotics.
Yeah- we had McDonald's cheeseburgers today- oh well, it's a treat day, and we were out at the mall getting the car's tires rotated and I wouldnt get home in time to fix a nice lunch.

So for breakfast: 1 fried egg, 1/2 piece of toast w/peanut butter, 4 strawberries, 8 grapes, milk
Lunch: (ugh) McD's cheeseburger (whole thing), 3 apple slices, 4 french fries, milk, 1/2 banana
Snacks: goldfish and animal crackers w/watered down juice
That's all so far.

Today my yummy little girl had:

b'fast: Slice of french toast and almost a whole peach. And milk.

snack: dry cereal (kashi mighty bites) and water

lunch: grape jelly on org. ww bread, water, and a few grapes.

snack: org cereal bar, some fresh blueberries.

Dinner: Chicken hidden in mashed potatoes (she won't eat meat...have to grate chicken and hide it!) w/mixed veggies (peas, carrots, corn, green beans)

Milk before bed

I'm so glad she loves her fruits and veggies!

This thread is fun to get some ideas!!!

AHHHHHHHH- I am sorry to say that those were from a mix and frozen berries, but delicious anyway! Especially with REAL maple syrup. I took pity on poor DH out shoveling 8 inches of heavy wet snow this AM and fixed him a good hearty breakfast- which DS also got to enjoy! Come on over anyday- i'll cook for you- I totally miss it- all I need is someone to occupy Nick for an hour and I'll do a meal!

Kirry- Hunter seems to have an amazingly varied diet! Awesome.
Yeah, I can cook fairly well if my spirited LO is involved, but it can be hard if I'm trying to concentrate. LOL.
My veg/chinese noodle soup was improvised, but this is what I did;
1. prepared the Chinese noodles- long skinny egg noodles (had to soak in cold water for 3 mins prior to boiling for 5- I don't know why, but I followed their directions from the package.
2. Minced/peeled garlic/onion, chopped celery. Threw into a pot w/hot oil and stirred.
3. Added a lot of chicken broth brought to a boil.
4. Tossed in some frozen carrots, broccoli, bamboo shoots. Added the noodles.
5. Simmer till done. Season w/soy sauce to your liking.
Nick really gobbled it up, but well, he's Nick. He eats anything except for cheese.

PS- you know you are a foodie mom when your 18 mos old opens the fridge and says, "ginger" holds it up, and he's right! LOL!
