Today marked another milestone in my son’s life, he tried food for the very first time.
As you can see from the picture, he didn’t find it very appetizing.Yet I found it a small victory he kept it in and didn’t spit it all out. we gave homemade sweet potatoes a try tonight and I think in time he will come to love all the foods I make like his big sister C. H unfortunately is a picky eater but she has been that way since birth, while C has always enjoyed eating.
I didn’t give C or V any baby cereal and I think that really helped in getting C to eat a variety of foods. The girl will even eat broccoli and fish willingly. H gave me all kinds of problems with nursing so I had to resort to formula which she would only eat with cereal. Now she will only eat a few foods and you can forget about her trying anything new.
My little girl C spent the weekend being sick. If she is still running a fever and complaining of an earache, I will be taking her to the doctor tomorrow. My poor baby just isn’t acting like herself since she’s been sick. Please say a prayer that she recovers quickly.

This sweet little girl has a dark side. She absolutely refuses to use the potty. I started the training process about qa month ago by going cold turkey on the diapers and putting that kid in big girl tinker bell pants. At first I put her on the potty every 3-4 hours and make a big deal when she succeeded. For a while she would pee in the potty all the time and mostly poo in her pants. I thought we were making great strides because my husband and I caught her twice when she was about to make a stink in her pants and got her to the potty on time.
But lately she has been hiding from us and peeing and pooing in her pants. Today I found her in the playroom with wet pants. So I cleaned C up and sent her to her room to get some new clothes. After 15 minutes I went to check on her to find poo on the floor. ICK!! After that was cleaned up I found that she had peed on the floor. At this point I was ready to pull my hair out. I felt like
I can’t believe how resistant this little 2 and 3/4 yr old is to using the potty. When her older sister was that age I was able to train her in a week using the same method.
What is a mommy to do?? Hoping for a better tomorrow.
