Bon Apetite

So, I have been meaning to blog this for a very long time. Too long, in fact. Ava and Alex are different eaters. No matter what I put in front of them, Ava eats one thing, Alex eats the other. These breakfast bowls are an example. This was not staged, people!
Alex drank the milk and left the cereal while Ava ate the cereal and left the milk. When given a banana, only one or the other will eat it - never both. strange.

And it doesn't stop at breakfast. At lunch, Alex will scarf down his pb&j while Ava will pull it apart, often take a lick and leave it on her plate. Alex loves peaches and pineapple while Ava prefers pears and kiwi. She drinks milk, and he wants water.

At dinner, Ava always digs right into the meat and Alex much prefers carbs. More often then not, I find myself switching their plates mid meal so everyone can have a fair share of seconds and nothing goes to waste.
Alex loves his sweets... chocolate pudding, ice cream, lollipops and candy. Ava can take it or leave it.

And there is one thing they both agree to love. You'd won't believe it: Broccoli. No lie.
