ROFL at the under the table story

I used to get so worked up about ds. Now I take a more relaxed attitude.

I'm barfing here remembering dd's beige phase. She lived on Heinz tinned Macaroni cheese for months. I couldn't open the tin because it made me bleurgh.

For my "eat anything" DS, i feel it was all down to understanding the moral of Green Eggs and Ham. Although he would more or less try anything, if every he was being fussy we only had to discuss the book and he'd try it.

DD not shown any interest in Dr Seuss.

law - I really will try and dig out some old threads - ds1 was FAR worse as a toddler than he is now, although still bad now. He is also very very skinny, and as a toddler was positively skeletal, so they do improve.

DD keen to help with cooking. Last Christmas we made poncy Nigella pancakes for breakfast. She loved helping make them - but wouldn't attempt to try them.
