Oh man, it is so hard. I have one picky eater and it is a nightmare getting him to eat any kind of vegetable or fruit. He fights it all. What I've done with him, which may not work with every picky eater is I found a fruit that he would eat - which is Gerber baby food fruit (he's 8!!!) or applesauce and tell him he has to eat that one Kate Hallhttp://canigetanotherbottleofwhine.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4109556486849297351.post-49964874893684519062013-08-09T16:57:56.179-04:002013-08-09T16:57:56.179-04:00Oh, Lisa.

I started giving him a cookie and chips with his dinner because when those things were on his plate, he'd actually eat some chicken too! Sadly, now, he asks for a cookie and chips at breakfast.

It should also be noted that, by the point I wrote about, my 4 year old (who turns 11 today!) was actually chewing on the paci nipple rather than sucking it. In fact, the pediatrician was concerned that she might chew it off and get choked so it was also a matter of safety. But, I'm not going to lie - it wasLisa @ The Golden Spoonshttp://www.the-golden-spoons.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4109556486849297351.post-3028266161761271672013-08-09T13:19:46.744-04:002013-08-09T13:19:46.744-04:00Thanks Janine!!

My son is 26 months old and his pacifier habit keeps getting worse. I am so confused about this one. I read that some kids have this sucking desire past the early toddler stage. I'm so afraid that my son will start sucking his thumb! Did your kids? And the sugar? Yikes. It's like crack for kids.Jessica Smocknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4109556486849297351.post-35726313998390297482013-08-09T09:06:57.747-04:002013-08-09T09:06:57.747-04:00Lisa, totally share a few of your bad habits.

My younger just last night fell asleep in bed with me and my husband did move her into her own bed to sleep the rest of the night, but sometimes I too tired or still working at night to fight her. And the sugary diet, yes I am guilty of this, too. So don't beat yourself up too badly, because you really aren't alone and sure you will find Janine Huldiehttp://janinehuldie.com/noreply@blogger.com
