Toddler Nutrition

A friend sent me this website today and I just had to share it with you. It’s possibly the best website on toddler nutrition that I’ve ever read. Be sure to read the Nutritional Needs section as well as the recipes. I honestly read the entire site. I feel so much better about feeding Maddie and the way she eats. For example, she hardly ever wants dinner. I though this was something I was doing wrong and it turns out that it’s perfectly normal.

I plan to make quite a few of the recipes this weekend and then freeze them for meals in the coming weeks. I’ll let you know what I make and how it goes. If you decide to make any of the recipes, let me know!

P.S. I’m going for the Big Haircut this afternoon. Stay tuned for Before and After pics.

P.P.S. Tattoo pics will be forthcoming as well.

    Thanks for the link! I could totally have used this like six months ago- now Addy’s finally eating okay. FOR NOW. But I’m sure this stuff will still come in handy when she goes on an eating strike again.

    Thanks for the link. I hate that my kid won’t eat much and that I tend to feed her whatever I can get to shove in her mouth.

    Can’t wait to see the hair!

    Great link! This is good info, at first glance.

    Yay for the haircut appointment! New dos are soooo fun. I can’t wait for pictures. But I will PATIENTLY wait for them. Ahem. ;-)

    Looking forward to the tattoo pictures as well!

    Ooooh, tattoo pictures!! I’d share a pic of mine, but I can’t bend that direction. :)

    And thanks for the nutrition site - lots of great info!

    That’s a GREAT site! And I especially love how they say picky eating is genetic. Now I can blame my husband, because it certainly didn’t come from MY side!

    Glad you found that site. Since you apparently will not LISTEN TO ME! lol ;-P Oh and “Twilight” WAS a good read, you were right! (See? I listen to YOU but you will not listen to ME! LOL! Okay, I’ll stop now) Hehehehe

    augh thank you! So I guess I will feel slightly less guilty when they eat nothing for dinner. (their choice, not mine)
