My Mr Declan is well known for his super poor appetite. Seeing him finish his food is like receiving bonus - seldom happen but when it does, it’s really a shiok kinda feeling.
He dislikes alot of food but he loves bread. He loves bread with all kinds of spread and if all these different kinds of spread can be piled on all at one go, he’ll be happiest! Can you imagine your bread with goobler, fruitty jam, kaya, nutella, cheese and whatever else all spreaded onto a single piece of bread??? To me it’s simply – YUCKY! but my elder boy loves his bread that way….
That’s him with just 4 different types of spread minus the cheese. I refuse to give it to him….
That’s him applying his “first coat” of spread
That’s what he’ll do in between the different “coats”. It is somewhat an intuitive reaction which he was unable to help it. I have to keep a close watch to either stop him from popping the butter knife into his mouth to lick it clean before dipping it into the next bottle or, if I am unable to stop him in time, I gotta snatch it from him, run to the kitchen wash it, dry it, before I return it to him to put on his next “coat” of spread….. very tedious… but so long as he eats.. I’ll do what I should do…
Pardon the mess behind the boys.. that’s the clutter we created in mil’s place as our house just started reno and we got no place to send these items to.
It’s a little hard not to notice how skinny Dec is right? Other than his poor appetite, there’s another reason why he is so skinny.
See?? that’s the reason! The picture explains it all. Poor appetite + poor eating habits + a baby that will steal food = skinny first born. This boy is spoilt by the grandma… he’s got really bad eating habits…. while he eats.. he’ll be doing all sorts of things including dangerous stunts like what he’s doing in the picture… I’ve been trying to correct him but it’s really a slow and painful process… arghhhhhh but I’ll persist. All these and with a baby brother that is always eyeing his korkor’s dinner means he gets to eat lesser. He’s not upset at all when Kenji steals his food. In fact he is happy!! Sometimes when I urged him to eat or finish up his food, he’ll go :” mummy.. kenji will eat for me one lah…” and this baby…. dunno what to say… He’ll usually finish his dinner first and when his brother is eating… he’ll come close and open his mouth wide wide trying to snap up the food that we are suppose to send into dec’s mouth…
If only these 2 can balance up when it comes to food intake… it’ll be a happily ever after scenerio for me during dinner time…
hahahaha….that is probably one kid who does not have food as his top priority……
Kenji, the food stealer…..heehee
The same happens in my household too…the didi stealing the gor gor’s food…
And my Damien is also not very keen in taking his meals…he’s improved alot though…cos I told him, if he don’t eat, he won’t grow, and if he can’t grow, one day didi will outgrow him and didi will be more powerful than him…whatever power he has will be transfer over to didi..yeah, I gotta do the ‘power’ talk with him these days…
Hahah… it is really funny to see didi eating gege’s food… we can put grace and dec together…. grace can survive on bread too….a bread lover kekeke…..
Wah…. Declan is not eating bread… he is eating spread with some bread in it!!
I am happy to see Kiat and u already have 2 kids. Wish ur family happiness. Kiat will know who this joker is.
