Alex's meals yesterday

Breakfast: the usual. Daddy Cereal (aka Frosted Mini Wheats).

Lunch: when given the option of PB sandwich, chicken nuggets, or a turkey sandwich, he opted for a turkey sandwich (uhh... that never happens. Especially with the aforementioned competitors.). I went out on a limb and asked if he wanted lettuce on it and was greeted with an enthusiastic yes. While making the sandwich, he informed me that he wanted "leaves" (aka spinach) on it. Sure thing buddy!

Dinner: We went to Kneaders and offered Alex chicken noodle soup which is always a sure thing. He denied the offer and opted for a cup of fruit that he saw in the display (and informed us that he wanted vegetables. LOL!). So he had cantaloupe, some honeydew (wasn't the biggest fan of it), and a few grapes and sliced strawberries for dinner.
Lest you think we neglected him, we fed him a PB sandwich at home (by the time he wanted some of our sandwiches that we offered him at Kneaders, they were gone. YUM!).

For dessert we somehow convinced him to skip the snowflake cookie@ Kneaders that he desperately wanted in exchange for ice cream at home. Score!


So apparently, minus the goldfish snacking and ice cream, it was a pretty darn good day. It's days like these that make my little mama heart flutter with pride. I'm obviously doing something right, right?
