Peas & Corn

Our darling Sweet Pea has decided that the only two vegetables that she will eat on a regular basis are peas and corn. No broccoli, carrots, sweet potato, potato, sometimes green beans, mixed veggies, NOTHING! Now I know things could be worse and she won't even eat peas or corn, but I'm afraid she'll get sick of eating these two things and we'll be stuck. Is this normal? I've heard kids go through their picky stages, but is it ok for her to be eating the same things every day? The kid grows like a weed so I'm sure she's fine. I'd appreciate any feeding suggestions.

On a better note my toe surgery went well, Praise God! Thankfully I'm not feeling any pain and I'm just limping around and will be for a while. Pink crocks are my shoe of choice with everything. I'm not even going to try and match because what's the point? If they didn't cost so much I'd invest in a black pair, but I really don't care.

I've also decided that I want to try diaper soakers into our cloth diapering mix. I'm in the midst of making one right now and we'll see how that goes. The yarn isn't that soft, but I'm hoping it will soften up after a good soak in lanolin. I'm thinking of investing in a good soaker and longies pattern. They are too cute and since we can't afford to buy a bunch and I can knit I might as well try to make some right? This is all good in theory I know, but we'll see what really happens. If anyone has soaker tips please send them my way because I'm new to this aspect of cloth diapering.

Glad your foot is on the mend!

My son would only eat baby food that was orange or yellow. No green whatsoever. His skin turned orangey.

Here is a longies pattern I found awhile back.
