What My 18 Month Old Ate Today 10.18.2023: Day 5 of a Broken Fridge
October 24, 2023
Disclaimer – I am not a nutritionist or an expert in nutrition in any way. I am just a mom sharing what my son ate on this day. This is not a meal plan or a guide for anyone else. This is just what works for us.
Our refrigerator broke 5 days before this. We have been buying Aryi a fourth gallon of milk every day and putting it in a cooler with ice. I am doing the best that I can while we wait for the fridge to be fixed.
Aryi seemed so hungry today. He never wanted to stop eating.
Milk – 06:00am – 120mL/4oz whole cow’s milk
Breakfast – 07:30am – Aryi’s usual Oatmeal (no yogurt today since no refrigerator)
Snack 1 – 09:00am – Mini alphabet cookies
Aryi likes to have some kind of cookies or crackers to snack on during our walk in the park.
Snack 2 – 10:00am – Pouch
I was trying to get some kind of fruit or veggies in Aryi today.
Snack 3 – 10:30am – Teething biscuit
Milk – 11:00pm – 240mL/8oz whole cow’s milk
Lunch – 02:00pm – Olive Garden Meatballs and Spaghetti with Salad and Breadsticks
We ordered Olive Garden for Lunch. I got soup, salad, and breadsticks. My husband got meatballs and spaghetti with soup and breadsticks. We got Aryi a side order of meatballs. It came with 3. He ate 1. But our fridge was fixed today so we can keep his leftovers for tomorrow. I also gave him some of my salad. He loved the salad. My husband gave Aryi some pasta. He loves to play with spaghetti pasta.
Milk – 04:00pm – 120mL/4oz whole cow’s milk
Aryi asked for “bubu” or milk.
Dinner – 05:00pm Popcorn chicken and a banana
We are doing our Harry Potter Marathon on Wednesday Nights. I give Aryi some kind of chicken nugget when we do this so he can eat on the couch. He asked for a banana. Anytime Aryi asks for something healthy I give it to him.
Milk – 07:00pm – 240mL/8oz whole cow’s milk
