My son’s always been on the thinner side, and I am constantly trying to fatten him up. I know it probably isn’t a good idea to get him used to eating fatty foods (and they don’t seem to work anyway!), but I still have to get used to the mindset that he’s healthy and active, and that’s all that matters.

You’re right on about the shopping ventures. It’s something that I’m trying to focus on since I do cook most of our meals. The kiddo’s still get a few too many goodies throughout the day and they’ve now begun saying, “Mommy, you need to buy lollipops at the store, we’re out!” Luckily their attention is easily shifted to other things. It’s amazing how quickly they start figuring things out.
