Ellie has become a good eater. A really good eater. You put any food in front of her face and she opens her mouth and takes a big bite. It’s usually followed by her giving me a scrunchy nose smile and then opening for more. Fruit, vegetable, meat, cereal, whatever, she’ll eat anything. Until… Continue reading “ALL BY MYSELF”
