He's a bottomless pit today!

[carawestt]

For breakfast he had his normal smoothie (which usually fills him up) but then he wanted more once he finished it. I made him some toast and then he went to the fridge and was whining for "boobears", so then he ate half a pint of blueberries. I'm afraid he's going to puke any minute.

Growing boy!! Send some appetite to D

V's average bfast is a full waffle, full yogurt, entire banana and about 1 million berries. It's amazing what they pack in!

[carawestt]

I just don't know where they put it. He's taking a nice long nap now, so that's good

She's still nursing a lot, yeah? Lincoln eats more now that he's only down to morning and night.

Mel has been hating food lately. Today I was thrilled she ate 3 small mini pancakes and a couple of handfuls of Cheerios.

I wish she'd go through a hungry phase again.

Ya... 3-4 times a day and 2-3 motn.

She's officially below the 5th% now so I'm worried-- I'm trying not to because she's doing amazingly well developmentally but you know, there's alway something to worry about

It's hard not to worry but some kids are just small. I was really tiny at that age too, I think like barely 20 pounds at 18 months.

Sometimes dd will eat two eggs, a slice of toast, and like 1/3 C of fruit. It is amazing what they can pack away sometimes!

Colin is always a bottomless pit but today was crazy. He had a large banana and a mandarin orange for breakfast. At lunch THREE eggs, half a cup of blueberries, and a yogurt. Then at dinner we ate at cracker barrel and he ate two eggs, a bowl of grits, and a sausage. That does not include snacks (grapes, raisins, and a cheese stick) milk or nursing. I cannot imagine my grocery bill when I have two teenage boys.

Violet has always been under the 5th percentile (she's now in the 10th for the very first time, but not even on the chart for height) and she eats A TON! Some kids are just small no matter what they eat.

I know.. I think she will just be small. She did drop from the 60% though. So I guess it's the drop... But I think she'll just be petite like Cara mentioned

My grocery bill is already insane. Between DH, jack and Ethan they eat 3 boxes of cereal a week, 3 gallons of milk, and two loaves of bread. I have to go to the grocery every other day for fruit and milk. 3 bunches of bananas a week, 12 apples, a bag of grapes. Just the minimum!!!! That's not counting me and Charlie! (He drinks whole milk, so that's another gallon). It's only going o get worse!!!

[carawestt]

Haha irishsara and eav2c I always say that to H when we talk about this baby possibly being a boy. And I can't imagine having two (maybe 3) teenage boys in the house.

[devotchka]

crazy growth spurt, i bet!
