Picky Eater No More?

This is the face of a VERY picky eater. For those of you who have been loyal blog followers of mine, you know that I have about six things that I eat on a regular basis. Mommy has been working hard to get me to try new things, pretty much since I was a year old. Then at my three-year-old check up, my pediatrician said that I'm a bit wee and could stand to gain a few pounds and grow a few inches. Easier said than done, right? Then last night, Mommy had a break through of sorts.
She made me this peanut butter and jelly sandwich in the shape of a cowboy hat, just like the one my friend, Woody, wears. Good thing she has a bucket of 100 cookie cutters in the pantry and there was a cowboy hat shape. Whew! Hum, I bet you're wondering why I chose the cowboy hat shape? Let's see...





That guy is everywhere! Nuf said.
Mommy also made me a couple of chicken nuggets and gave me my old favorite, mac 'n cheese, as a side dish rather than the main course. And guess what? I ate the entire sandwich and about one whole nugget. Wow, right?!


Here's a video of me eating the sandwich just in case you do not believe me. Enjoy!

Then today at school, Miss Kitty told Mommy that I ate an entire hot dog for lunch. Then tonight, I ate another sandwich for dinner. So I guess I'm turning into a big boy right before your eyes! I might even grow a few inches and gain a few pounds over night. A Mommy can only hope.

That hat looked absolutely delicious! How GREAT that you've discovered cuisine beyond the venerable mac and cheese! You're in for a shock at the good stuff you've missed! Carry on, Noah! Good job!
