I myself am a VERY picky eater. That is because I was given buttered noodles 7 days a week if thats what I wanted.<br />Oh, and the not so great news {because I raised a super stubborn daughter} potty training wont be any easier. They CAN do it. They just WONT!

I did it for my own sanity because I was working long hours outside the home (as was hubby) and we had all we could do to get one meal pulled together. We took the stance that you either eat the food that has been prepared or you wait for the next meal. They were never required to eat all that was on their plates. What they ate was their choice. They chose to skip some things-asparagus, brussels sprouts, but for the most part ate when they were hungry. Mom and Dad managed to remain relatively sane through it all.Donna Ursohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16054716348992925559noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1984865389412513470.post-58047592089079572432011-04-26T21:21:01.948-05:002011-04-26T21:21:01.948-05:00I know how you suffer with getting a child to eat....I know how you suffer with getting a child to eat. My mother got the advice, "no child will starve so if he doesn't eat, he doesn't eat.. he will eventually." But he didn't eat and got ill. That was my brother so when my kids came along I cooked at least something I knew they'd eat and something they had to try. Never had a problem with food.Maureenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16418491766906234442noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1984865389412513470.post-36267577767199166732011-04-26T20:21:11.937-05:002011-04-26T20:21:11.937-05:00I like your style.

I never thought I would have a kid that struggled with food, but I do. Kids are funny like that. They do things you would never expect. I am sooooo not picky. I'm an adventurous eater. And, here I am, making a separate meal most nights for my very picky son. We make some allowances, but yes, there are nights when we tell him that if he's not going to eat, he's going to have to be hungry. And we stick to it. It hasn't been as hard as I would think on those nights, so we do it when we have to.Kristy @Loveandblasphemyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02634987114195614214noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1984865389412513470.post-22931806645990560492011-04-26T16:15:36.382-05:002011-04-26T16:15:36.382-05:00Love that you had mimosas and forgot to take pix o...Love that you had mimosas and forgot to take pix of the cooked ham, I would totally do something like that! I bet it was delicious. Anyway, girlfriend, don't get played! LOL. I read somewhere that if you have your kids eat what you eat, make sure there is at least one thing you know they will eat. That way it won't backfire and you won't end up caving and making her something because you think she's hungry. It works for us and our kids are branching out...we are proud. :)EatDrinkBeRunninghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14312927503357182649noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1984865389412513470.post-5092692464822360292011-04-26T11:48:43.091-05:002011-04-26T11:48:43.091-05:00I absolutely agree on the "you get what we ge...I absolutely agree on the "you get what we get and if you don't it, well, you'll starve"..... I was nervous doing that with my oldest son but the kid will eat everything that we do, asparagus, artichokes... absolutely everything! Can't beat that! Now Riley (the 2yr old) eats hardly anything. But he's still thriving so I'm not worried about it! :)Kristenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10804071875411766159noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1984865389412513470.post-24262344301684202812011-04-26T10:18:28.330-05:002011-04-26T10:18:28.330-05:00Yes, hang in there.

I'll see if there are any recipes for Wee Burb's age.<br /><br />You know, I still have so much guilt, worry, etc. and compare my baby way too much with others, especially his weight. As mothers, we can't help but do it because it's all around us. There's what's good for you and your baby and then there's what others/experts tell you. I struggle with that. I struggle with wanting to pick him up every time he wakes up crying at night and nursing him, even though an "expert" would tell me that I'm causing him to develop a "sleep crutch"...but you know what it comes down to? what makes your baby healthy & happy and what makes you sane. That's it. She'll grow up fine either way!Amanda @ It's Blogworthyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14919340979575037179noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1984865389412513470.post-81231015943907557982011-04-25T08:57:41.015-05:002011-04-25T08:57:41.015-05:00oh wee'burb, you stubborn little thing!
