Today after I dropped off my daughter at school, I decided that I am going to make some chicken broccoli mini muffins. I am so tired of fighting my daughter on getting her to eat something. She used to eat so well, too. I used to be able to give her anything and she would eat it without fighting me. I used to struggle to get my son to eat because he would put the food I gave him in his mouth, and then proceed to spit it out.
These days I struggle getting her to eat. She eats cereal (dry), cookies, and just random food that are all just not healthy or provide her with enough nutrients. She also drinks way too much milk, and diluting it or giving her water or juice is not an option. So I usually just distract her with something else when she wants milk.
I don't struggle on feeding my son anymore. He eats pretty much anything I hand him. He mostly eats chicken nuggets, rice, baked chicken, cheese, and oatmeal. I am so grateful he is finally eating. I hope and pray that he will continue to eat this well when he gets older.
So, between my daughter barely eating and my son being an excellent eater, I have decided that I am going to make them chicken broccoli mini muffins to eat. If that goes well, I will start researching for more kid friendly meals I can make into a muffin for them to eat.
I haven't done anything crafty lately. I am in the process of making the family's Christmas cards this year. I have to start early, otherwise it will never get done. This weekend I am going to start working on making a Thanksgiving goodie box for my husband's co-workers and a few of the mothers at my daughters school.
