My little eater!

Last night at my cousin's wedding Greyson proved that he is an eater! He ate a plate full of fruit, some chicken and BBQ, plus about 5 chocolate kisses...

Putting a grape on the fork before eating it. Greyson loves to use forks and frankly he likes to use adult silverware. I'm all for it, but I think it makes Michael nervous.

We didn't get a photo of it, but he was waving the chicken leg around like a "Ye Olde King".

I've been doing some food blog reading and have become a fan of Super Healthy Kids (Thanks Hayden's Mom!!!) and Weelicious (Thanks Isaac's Mom!!!). I'm trying to get back into meal planning, and following the 1/2 plate should be Fruits and Veggies, 1/4 grains and 1/4 protein. It is safe to say that we have NOT been following that guideline. But it is my new challenge. I just cut up a beautiful bright red watermelon and now I'm about to make a big salad to keep in the fridge. YUM!

Yay Greyson! Will you come to Arizona and show Isaac how a big boy eats?

(Looking forward to seeing how your mommy's meal planning goes. I am adjusting our weekly meal planning too.)
