A GREAT Day!!!

This was one of the best days Zoe's had in a LONG time. She got her MMR and Varicella vaccine, got sick with a cold, had a reaction to the vaccines, and just has taken a LONG time to feel 100%. Poor thing...

Anyway, we've also had to deal with Zoe deciding, for some reason, that eating at daycare was just NOT something she wanted. In fact, she would scream, cry, whimper, and just fight with Laura who was just trying to get her in her high chair and eat or drink milk!! It was really upsetting to hear, upon picking up Zoe, that she hadn't eaten or had anything to drink for the entire day. We'd get home and she'd run to the high chair or the fridge (one day, she kept running between the two until I finally got her food and drink!) because she was starving!

WELL...Starting this week, Zoe ate a LITTLE bit on Monday, a snack and some of her lunch on Tuesday, a snack on Wednesday, and today, TODAY, she ate EVERYTHING...she had morning snack, she had afternoon snack, she had her milk, and she had her lunch, including a cupcake for someone's birthday (the cupcake even had CHOCOLATE frosting...will be interesting to see if she's finally figured out the goodness of chocolate!). WOOHOOOO!!

I picked her up and she was in a GREAT mood. She didn't fight me putting her jacket on (she always fights me on this at daycare!), and she just waited while I talked to Laura about her day. We get home, and she goes to PLAY, not going for food. When it was time for dinner, she ate her ENTIRE meal. She had 2 fish sticks (normally, eats 1+), a whole cheese stick, and a half cup of peas....she scarfed those down! Oh, and a few bites of yogurt for dessert, but she mostly wanted to play with that! WOO!!

I wonder if we're hitting a growth spurt...
