This next blog entry is truly news worthy!!!!! For those who don't know, my almost 3 year old son Gavin does not eat what I like to call "people food." He lives on yogurt and cold cereal. Once a month, maybe a piece of fruit. Sometimes pretzels, graham crackers, or gold fish, but THAT IS IT! He's never had meat, or bread, and vegetables only a few times when he was a baby. His eating habits seriously suck!! And believe me, I have done everything I can think of to get him to eat, but he won't even give food a try. Until last night that is. In a strange turn of events, Gavin sat down to the plate of food I served him, (I always give him a plate "just in case") and............ wait for it................. he ate chicken!! He ate chicken I said!!! It was completely unexpected, uncoerced, and made my entire week! Not only did he eat the pieces I cut up for him, but he wanted a whole piece for himself, just like a good little carnivore. Um, yes I got pictures. This was most definitely an event I want documented! I feel like I can breathe a sigh of relief, my son is capable of eating like a human being. Fingers crossed for our next meal, lets hope he doesn't forget how great it was!
Go Gavin! That is a major breakthrough in the Casper home! =)
ReplyDeleteOH MY GOSH! It's like a freakin' miracle! Amazing! Way to go Gavin! Maybe it's the start of something new.
ReplyDeleteHe probably doesn't like to eat meat because it's cannibalism... since he's such a stinkin ham!
