In light of this I thought I'd post the stuff I feed Little Bit. Also, it will help me to have a list b/c I get confused about what to feed her.
Breakfast:
Until a week ago she had baby oatmeal w/ fruit every single morning. I figured if she'd eat it, I had better give it to her b/c I knew it had good vitamins and iron. Well, so much for that. so now...
1/2 pancake w/ thinly spread peanut butter
banana (sometimes 1/2 and sometimes a whole one)
oranges
apple
gerber cereal bar w/ thinly spread peanut butter on top
Lunch:
grilled cheese sandwich sans butter (she'll eat the whole thing--little piggy) and sometimes i add turkey for a little extra protein
green beans
gerber meat sticks (w/ ketchup)
mac and cheese
fruit
pb and jelly sandwich (again, thinly spread)
whatever my mom is eating for lunch and decides to feed her
Dinner:
bits of whatever we're eating
basically anything i listed for lunch
Snacks:
Cheese

Cheese
Cracker (saltine, chicken in a biscuit, wheat thin, pb crackers, cheese crackers)
goldfish
grahams
fruit
Ok, so I know it doesn't seem like a lot but you come get the child to eat. It is like getting water out of a rock (or in a rock for that matter). And I have to admit, she does get a little bit of ice cream every now and then--this was per the pediatricians office b/c she doesn't eat much. They said not everyday and not a lot, but a little every now and then just to give her some fat.
Don't give me that look...I am not a bad mom!

I've been through this with Kristen, and now with Care Bear, the second generation! I don't think I ever wouldn't eat anything!
Great menu ideas! I love the peanut butter on everything idea. Liam will only eat those meat sticks and chicken, so I am always pushing the soy yogurt to supplement the protein. THANKS!
It sounds to me like Little Bit eats pretty good. Better than Care Bear. Care Bear's menu?

and if it were up to her, ice cream every day, three times a day. I think both of my girls are vegetarians.
