My new home has become my kitchen. As my son has gotten older the bottomless pit which is his stomach is always hungry and looking for me to replenish it! I'm always in the kitchen getting a snack, milk juice, meals etc. His first word was cookie, i should have known then that there was an evil worm lurking in his belly always wanting more!
Lately i have realized even though he is asking for food all the time when he does sit down to eat it he never finishes.
The light bulb went off (BING!)
Maybe more verity in each meal is key for him in keeping his interest in what he is eating. I purchased plates that had separators so that i could add three different things to the plate instead of one. I also decided do get Tupperware just for his food which i can then cut up fresh fruit, roll up cold cuts or make individual servings of different healthy snacks. It ended up being the best thing ever, once he had gone to sleep for the night i prepared his snacks and lunch for the next day so that i was ready and all i had to do was give it to him, no more rummaging through the fridge and trying to through things together before he had a melt down because he was hungry.
Us moms usually have to do are errands with our kids which can be a hassle. One thing i now do that can make it a bit easier and save you some money is bring your lunch ,water and snacks with you. I purchased a great Rachael Ray lunch bag which keeps everything nice and cold or hot. By doing this i not only save money, I'm also able to feed my son healthier choices as a pose to fast food.
From a person who has invested in just about every brand of tupperware the beast in my opinion is Lock & Lock which can be purchased on Amazon.com, or Qvc.com
