That is...Congratulations on making it to one year! That is a huge accomplishment even if you didn't nurse the whole time. And another big congrats on it because I know how challenging that can be.<br /><br />We always said "we will never..." on so many things from food to bribing with desserts to TV watching. We have since learned that you just do the best you can always and sometimes that includes cheese quesadillas five times a week, bribing with Halloween candy, and morning and afternoon cartoons.Danahttp://www.danatreat.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2999598104152571748.post-2130208743134207092009-11-10T11:26:21.074-08:002009-11-10T11:26:21.074-08:00You made it to 1 year?!

Not everyone can say similar [and those who work outside of the home face an entirely different challenge].<br /><br />My Mom was a la leche league teacher and advocate. She breast-fed 4 children for a significant portion of her life. I hope I'll be able to do so too, yet who knows which hand I'll be dealt.<br /><br /><br />Happy [early] birthday to baby Elai, too!Salty Lasshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02572376821086929469noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2999598104152571748.post-11917456915731557542009-11-09T12:57:55.143-08:002009-11-09T12:57:55.143-08:00Nurit.

I love this line: "You d...What a great post! <br /><br />I love this line: "You do what you have to do to avoid having crackers for breakfast, lunch and dinner." <br /><br />My whole learning-to-cook journey has been about starting from utter ignorance and really REALLY poor eating habits. The more time I spend around moms, the more I apply their kid-feeding tricks to myself. "No special treat until you ate your vegetables. Just try to eat a little protein." <br /><br />Replace crackers with toast in that sentence and that pretty much sums up my daily struggle. Slightly embarrassing as a grown woman, but whaddya gonna do?<br /><br />Happy Birthday to your little guy!

Take it easy.<br />I've decided that my #1 rule is that I don't want to argue with my children about food. Yeas, this means more cheese and carbs combo lately :( But I know it'll change as they grow. Just keep making that good food and present to him and enjoy it.Nurithttp://www.familyfriendlyfood.com/noreply@blogger.com
