Okay, let me preface by saying I have never even tried giving Bailey oatmeal before (except for the baby cereal oatmeal). I never thought he'd try it, and I am not a big fan myself, so I thought - why bother? Reese on the other hand loves it! I guess she saw Brian (my hubby) eating it once, and tried some, and has been a fan ever since. After yesterday, when Bailey actually tried the green eggs, I thought that there is no better time than now to introduce Oatmeal.
Again, it was kinda nasty looking, but boy did it smell good! It was old fashioned oats, milk, cinnamon, pure vanilla extract, peanut butter and Sweet Potatoe Puree. It was super delicious- and like I said I am not a big fan of Oatmeal! I put a little Maple Syrup on mine, and put some Maple Syrup in Medicine cup, so the kids could pour on their own. Reese ate almost all of hers. And since I think Oatmeal is an acquired taste, Bailey and I agreed on 2 bites. And...
the gagging continues once again! :) He washed it down with plenty of chocolate milk - and that is the end of that!
This oatmeal and the pb & j muffins have been the most tasty things to me so far.
