Yes, that is grapes, whole wheat pasta, 3 kinds of peppers, and onions on Jake's tray. Oh yeah, and prune juice for medicinal purposes (poor little guy!). :)
So far my 14 month old is a healthy eater. I really hope to keep it this way! I'm not saying I'll never let him have chicken nuggets or fries, but I intend to limit that and teach him from a very young age how to eat healthy. We went to a BBQ place a few weeks ago with my parents, and it happened to be "kids eat free" day. We typically bring his food along when we go to a restaurant, but since it was free we decided to get him something. We chose chicken strips and green beans. We thought he would love the chicken (he loves meat), but he was more interested in the green beans and Mommy's grilled chicken than his chicken strips. We thought it was funny - aren't all kids supposed to love chicken strips?? :) Oh well, I'm not complaining! I'm sure it will be more of a struggle as he gets older (I know their tastes change), but for now I am going to fill him up on fruits, veggies and lean meats and I'll deal with that when it gets here! Eat up, Jakester! :)
It has been a really crazy week, but I've been able to get some workouts in. Phil has had "month end" this week at work. If you or someone you love is in a finance or accounting position you probably know what I'm talking about! It's thet time of month I dread. We don't see much of him the few days before and after month end. It's always a hard week for all of us - Phil working really long hours, Jake not getting to see Daddy. But yes, we are very thankful that he has a job and are glad another month end is over!
I had a good run today. I have been bringing it inside to the "dreadmill", but it has really helped with my speed training. It's a lot easier for me to keep the quicker pace and push me to keep going to my next goal. I am anxious to get back outside, though...come on fall!! I'm really looking forward to my trail run in 2 weeks!!
