I am giving myself a gold star with a circle around it under the 'mom' category. A typical breakfast I make for Sora is from Quaker oats instant oatmeal. I thought I'd try to make my own oatmeal with milk, brown sugar and fresh fruits.

I bought a pound of oats from the health store ($1.97) organic strawberries ($3) orange bananas ($1.29) white/yellow nectarines ($7) these are mostly for snacking, brown sugar ($2). I think the boxed stuff is $3.99 for ten packets...I think I have enough oats for two weeks.

I tried my first batch, made Sora a huge bowl and she ate a decent portion. I was thrilled because feeding her is like feeding a black hole.

I just feel better that it's 'home made' and I know what's going into her food....it just makes me feel more responsible *gasp*

I should also say last night we tried to shoot whipped cream in her mouth cuz what responsible parent wouldn't do that?
