im not a parent but my roommates kids try to eat shit and thats gross

 

I'm so excited to trick or treat with my two year old. I want him to be Charlie Brown for Halloween.

 

Mine is the same way, if it's edible and you put it in front of him, he's going to eat it.

 

My wife and I eat ground turkey tacos, he just started eating that last night. And he really likes lamb too. Kid isn't even 1 yet and he eats like a king.

 

Watching them eat spaghetti is the best!

 

Both my boys had spaghetti last night and I can vouch for this haha

 

I feel like your boys are old enough to eat with a fork though right? Haha

 

Watching them eat anything is the best. When my dude was younger (like 9 months or so) watching his little fingers trying to pinch his food was the best. Now I love it when he pinches his peas, then shoves his whole hand in his mouth just to eat it.

 

Agreed. The way he eats bananas is insane. Just shovels handful after handful in his mouth, like he'll eat an entire banana cut up in less than 2 minutes. Just fucking inhales it.

His fun thing now is drinking his soppy cup and spitting it's contents all over himself to where he's entirely soaked!

 

One is and chooses not to, the other is not haha

 

Mine devours his quinoa pie that his mom makes him, I've never seen him eat so fast. And cooked carrots he loves to, we put some coconut oil on top and shove em in the oven - loves those.


Also that sounds terrible haha, does he go through 4 outfits a day?

 

Like father, like son right?

Now I'm just picturing all 3 of you shoveling spaghetti in talks face with no utensils whatsoever haha

For the first couple days yeah like 3. Now after he does it the first time we just take it away and have him scream and cry his head off.

 

Do any of you have dogs (or pets)? We have a 3-year-old pug and my 2-year-old son is CONSTANTLY emulating him. Barks out the window, scratches himself like a dog, licks stuff off the floor and carpet. It's nuts. My wife can't stand it. I think it's hilarious.

 

We have 3 cats that my son chases when they're in the room. When he discovers one sleeping he'll walk/run up to them and rub his head up against them or "play" with em

 

My two year old is already wearing 5T shirts. This kid is gonna be big. I have a feeling that when he's a teenager, we're going to lose a lot of money just feeding the guy.

 

What's his height and weight currently?

 

My daughter only eats pasta without sauce. Thinking she needs an intervention, a hypnotist, maybe an exorcism

 

My 11mo is wear 18mo already.

 

SAME WITH GAVIN

Grayson is the opposite though and demands sauce like the hero he is

 

I don't like red sauce.

 

I just got an email from my daughter's teacher praising her helpfulness in the classroom and saying that she was grateful to have her in the class. I responded with the following and I feel kinda shitty about it. Obviously glad I won my case but the process of implementing these changes is so stressful and emotionally trying




I just feel ambivalent. Looking forward to her not being an hour away, but still a little sad and in doubt about the changes she is going to have to make.

 

You're very well spoken.

Hoping the best for you man!

 

Thank you I feel dumb constantly but at least in writingi sound better. haha

 

Best of luck with everything Chase

 

My dude will be a year old on election day and he still has terrible sleeping habits. Is that normal for anyone else? He'll go to sleep at 8 every night, but then he wakes up between 330-400AM and want to eat. She typically feeds him and then he'll sleep until 6-630 when everyone gets up. We really want to eliminate that 330-400 wake up. We've tried just not feeding him and see if it sleeps, which sometimes he does, just takes a really long time, so my wife just ends up feeding him because it's easier for him to feed him for 5 minutes, then to try sleep training him for 30 minutes.
