Breakfast: A bowl of oatmeal with raisins or half of a banana added. This would be the same amount of oatmeal that his father eats for breakfast. 2/3 cup. He usually wants to snack on more raisins when he is done with that.
Lunch: 3/4 cup of mashed mixed veggies, applesauce, or sweet potatoes. That is mixed with 1/4 cup of baby cereal. Also 1/2 cup of leftovers from dinner the night before. Today we had homemade macaroni and cheese. He also had more raisins and a small cup of apple juice mixed with water.
I would like to mention that when he was done with all of that he wanted more.
Has anyone ever read the children's book "Bear Wants More"? We say that a lot at our house!
Dinner: He once again eats 3/4 cup of mixed veggies, applesauce, or sweet potatoes mixed with baby cereal, but most of the time for dinner he eats TWO servings of that. He will also have 1/2 cup of whatever we are eating for dinner that he can get down with his one little chomping tooth.
He also still nurses and has random snacks throughout the day.
Brady is at 50% on the weight chart. I do worry that someday he will be one of those kids on the Dr Phil show that is 3 and weighs 200 lbs. Sheesh!
My friends with boys have always told me that their kids never stop eating. I believe you now. :) I really don't understand why. He doesn't seem to be more active at this point in his life. He is crawling around and walking around furniture as much as his sister's did. Even Sadie didn't eat this much!

Dang! On a good day, Sam's not even up to half of that, but she still is nursing about 4 times a day. Crazy how different kids can be!
He still nurses 4 times a day. I am telling you, I don't know where he is putting all of it! He does have kankles though. :)
Lol--with all her racing around, my baby's losing some of her roly-polyness! Slim and trim, I tell ya!
If you go on the Dr. Phil Show will you get me tickets?
