What My 20 Month Old Ate Today 12.20.2023

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.

The last few days have been insane for us and I am here to tell you that is ok. Sometimes all your kid eats is junk, you are not a bad mama. 

Milk – 06:00am – 180mL/6oz Whole Cow’s Milk

Breakfast – 07:30am – Protein waffle and apple juice

Aryi had a waffle for breakfast. He asked for apple juice so I gave him some. I don’t give him apple juice often. 

Snack 1 – 09:30am – Grain bar

We went out in the morning and Aryi had a bar for a snack. 

Lunch – 11:30am – Olive Garden
We went to lunch with my friend. Aryi ate everything. He had some of my soup, salad and breadsticks. My friend let him eat half of her shrimp, onion, and pepper appetizer. He also ate some of his own Chicken tenders and noodles. Wow. 

Milk – 12:00pm – 180mL/6oz Whole Cow’s Milk with 2 oz Water with Vitamins

Snack 2 – 4:00pm – Pouch

We knew we were going out to a Christmas event. We gave Aryi a pouch to hold him over. 

Snack 3 – 5:00pm – Cookie and Smore

At the Christmas event, we decorated sugar cookies and made smores. He loved decorating the cookie. He said it was glue. This was Aryi’s first smore. He liked chocolate and crackers. Not a fan of the marshmallow. 

Dinner – 06:30pm – Leftover Olive Garden chicken tenders and noodles

Milk – 08:00pm – 180mL/6oz Whole Cow’s Milk with 2 oz Water
