Wk of Jan 20

The latest thing with my son is he wants to play “Tain tain” with everything. This includes Kleenex boxes, Lego sets, stack toys, small cars, and food on his plate that are square pieces.
So, he starts with one piece and then starts putting other peices behind it. Then he uses the last piece to push the whole thing forward. It is more fun if he can push this train off, preferably with a loud noise from a table, bed or some such higher ground.

MIL is leaving early next week. It is going to be a challenge trying to do everything ourselves again. Abhay is also going to miss her a lot as he has gotten very used to having her around.

This whole “I want to eat by myself” phase is driving us all crazy. Trying to find good nutritious food that he can actually eat and not lose between plate and mouth is very challenging. Hi diet now is Bread/waffle/idli for breakfast. Main courses are Kuzhli paniyaram, stuffed parratha (different fillings), dosas (different kinds – pesarrattu, adai, and regular dosa), and ravioli. He will eat fruits depending on his mood. Weekends we experiment in trying to get him to eat rice of different kinds.
This weekend’s trial recipe’s are raagi dosa and All American Mac & Cheese.
