Keric has had what I like to refer to as "a pregnant woman's taste buds" lately! He eats some really odd things! Things I would not expect a kid his age to like!
He has all of the sudden become kind of a picky eater, and a kid who doesn't eat much at all! However this does not seem to slow him down at all! He still has MORE than enough energy! I told Chris I thought maybe he was Solar Powered, and he said he thought he was more Laser powered. Laser Powered?? He thinks that maybe the radiation from watching Manny on T.V. is absorbed into Bubby's cells which in turn creates energy, kind of like the sun does with plants. I don't know? I guess since he watches so much flippin Manny, if this indeed is the case, then this would be why he has so much flippin energy!
Anyway, my point is when he WILL eat, I am more than happy to give him what it is he wants no matter how odd it sounds to me! Lately he has been asking for Pickles, or as Bubby says it "Gickles" a lot! Every time I open the fridge he runs up, swings the door open wider, and yells "Gickle! Gickle!" I think he ate almost an entire jar of Grandma Hopkin's pickles almost all by himself. I will admit that I helped some, but honestly not a lot! He does come by his love of Gickles honestly! I LOVE my Grandma's pickles, and every time I go home I con her out of a jar of two to bring back with me! :) Guess he got the Gickle taste bud from me!
Today for his snack after his nap he asked for "Gickles" and "Shish" (translation, pickles and gold fish) Really!?! Yuck!
After I put it on his tray it just looked so gross! It sounded gross when he asked for it, but yet I have to admit that I too like Gickles and Shish especially if they are my Grandma's Gickles, I just don't know that I would eat them together. Just not so appetizing if you know what I mean! He did however eat every last one of them, so I guess it must have been good?
Who knows what goes through that little head of his! All I know is that he cracks me up more and more every day!
