Tis the season for resolutions, so let’s see if I can commit to updating this site at least once a week all of 2011. In order to meet that goal for this week, I’m going to talk about oatmeal – exciting no?

Adam likes oatmeal. He really does. However, the only way to get him to eat it is to pin his arms down and force feed him the first two bites. Once I can get him to eat a couple of spoonfuls it’s like a switch is flipped and he remembers, oh yeah, this is good stuff. But man, getting him to that point is a workout.

He also really likes to feed himself, but has trouble getting the food on the spoon (or fork). So normally I will prep the utensil for him and he’ll take it from there. The other morning though, he decided he’d handle it himself.

Mommy still got to help with the clean up.
