I must confess, however, that I've been tempted lately to give my child not-so-good-for-him-rather-unhealthy-really-fast-foodish-kinds-of-things. You know, things like pieces of french fries from ANY restaurant we're at, pieces of fettuccine from Olive Garden, left-over Kraft Macaroni & Cheese (at least it's the 'good' kind) and I even let him munch on a whole pickle once (ok, not incredibly horrible for him, but you get the picture).
Last night, while searching in my pantry for something new for my little man, (not like I didn't have 25 actual Gerber Baby food options) I found.... wait for it.... Spaghettios! Yes. It's true. And I thought to myself. Yum! Who bought these & why didn't I find them earlier? So, we ate some!
The GREAT thing is... Wil loves all of this! It's like, anything I give him to try, he's like, "yes Mom! This looks delicious. Besides, I get to do it all by myself & I get to be VERY messy while doing so"!I just re-read my post & am feeling guilty to have confessed. Do you ever give your kid horrible foods? Yikes!
Those foods aren't horrible for Wil, look at it as being a learning exercise for him. I think every mom has given there children spaghettios and french fries. Wil's like his dad. He likes to eat:)
ReplyDeleteall the time, miss stefani. all the time. i used to be a bit of a purist but i gave in. way to come clean! :)
ReplyDeleteHey I think Wil will be just fine. I remember the Brunson twins being shoveled Spaghettios out of one big bowl. A bite to one then a bite to the other! And we all know they turned out alright. Of course I never fed my kids that junk but I am always thinking "healthy". (Yeh right!) You are just teaching Wil to enjoy eating his food as much as the rest of us.
