maybe I'm on to something...

So I didn't allow any crackers for snacks today. Instead I told Audrey the deal was fruit, cheese, or veggies. Once I broke down the fruit categories, she ate an entire apple with peanut butter for dip.

Later, when she asked for a cup of milk and nearly threw a fit when I said it had to be with lunch, she ate two hot dogs with ketchup. It was a late lunch, so we'll see if she has a big dinner.

I think I'll stop buying crackers for a while and try to make this work.

I think that is a great idea! Crackers can be filling--and empty calories. You're the one in control. Good job today, mommy!!
