Thank you for your kind words. Sounds like you know exactly where I'm coming from on this, too! It hit a little too close to home. Glad there are other like-minded Mommies out there!Casey Charleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09297454764615652537noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25152932852866803.post-9052135241247665832015-03-16T13:41:49.335-05:002015-03-16T13:41:49.335-05:00Thanks, C.

I wish I could erase that one from my memory!Casey Charleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09297454764615652537noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25152932852866803.post-39060173028751739522015-03-16T11:20:34.339-05:002015-03-16T11:20:34.339-05:00I have tried to comment on this thing like 4x! An...I have tried to comment on this thing like 4x! Anyway, I take great interest in this post because Max and Cooper are only one day apart with the SAME EXACT stats (Max is 40.6 lbs and 40.5"). My Max is one of the "best" toddler kid eaters I know (as it sounds like Cooper is too) and I take food in our house pretty seriously. I'm not perfect, but it's one of the "things" that I care about. Early bedtimes? eh...Ipad/tv time? Try to restrict...but food...it's constantly on my mind. We do all foods over here: thai, indian, lots of veggies, and some "kid" food thrown in there too. My pedi didn't say a word about anything to us, and it makes me sad that some moms who may take the dr too seriously may restrict foods or make their 4 year old feel uncomfortable or conscious about eating. As you already know, your Cooper is perfect and I'm glad you tossed that paper out the window. To throwing all the silly guidelines out the window and teaching our children about a healthy relationship with food...Brookehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07383044630813847302noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25152932852866803.post-52071599037420934612015-03-13T21:08:31.930-05:002015-03-13T21:08:31.930-05:00I just read this.

You are brave and honest in real life. Secondly, that is a load of CRAP. Like absolute crap!! It makes me furious for you but mostly for moms who hear this and aren't as wise and confident as you and freak out. I am so so so glad you are not changing his portions. Your kids are the single healthiest eaters- actually all four of you are- I know. <br /><br />Logan outeats me every single day and has an impressive (concerning?) little tummy but he is light as a feather. Also, Everett clearly has a dairy intolerance and this afternoon our pediatrician told us, we should just go ahead and do cow's milk anyway. What? Ok. I'll quit ranting. Just, thank you. For being real and for being rational. <br /><br />Also- eating out once a week? Psshhhht. So many high fives. You're smoking it.
