We get a daily report from school every day with what Mallory ate, when she napped, and when & what kind of diaper changes she had. I don’t normally pay attention to anything other than the nap column, but yesterday’s meal column was full so it stood out to me. This is what it said:
| Food | Time |
| oatmeal cookie | 6:25a |
| yogurt, milk | 7:55a |
| cheerios, watermelon, 1/2 banana, water | 9:05a |
| pizza, carrots, refused milk | 11:50a |
| 1/2 banana, watermelon, cheerios, water | 1:25p |
| more carrots, cheerios, water | 3:00p |
We provide all this food (Friday was pizza day so we just sent money for that) so I shouldn’t be surprised that she ate all this. And the oatmeal cookie has been an extra pre-breakfast snack this week since she has to get up so early with me doing daycare drop-off. I was hoping that it would tide her over so she could have her breakfast (and the rest of her meals) at her normal time. Apparently this doesn’t work – normally breakfast is 8.30a ish at school. Oh well.
It just seems like a LOT of food! I’m sure it doesn’t help that Mallory knows the sign for “eat” and “please” now, and also will go hang from the front of the highchair until you feed her.
Moooooooo (what Mallory says when you ask her “what does a pig say?”)
