Two Year Old Eating Habits

Dear Evie,
Today you told me that you wanted to eat sour cream for breakfast. We met in the middle by putting the sour cream on some beans but you decided you didn't like that idea either and spooned the sour cream off of the beans and yelled at me to give you more sour cream before you got to the beans. One of your other favorite spoon-able foods that I try to hide from you is cream cheese. You would probably eat a whole package of cream cheese by yourself if I let you. I don't really blame you though, sour cream and cream cheese are awesome! Sometimes I think you know exactly which foods to ask for because you know they will tempt me because I'm trying to eat only healthy foods ("trying" being the key word), but you got your dad's taste in food despite all my efforts and refuse to eat vegetables or anything that looks "gucky." At least you eat fruit, that's a plus! You caught on to me sneaking in crushed up Flintstone's vitamins into your drinks and so now I'm trying to figure out how else to sneak in some nutrition into your diet. You think I would be a pro at this sneaky healthy stuff by now!
Love,
Your mommy
