They’re a year and nine days apart so Molly’s always been a little bit ahead and Zac is wanting to keep up with Molly. She’s potty trained now but he will sit on the potty and do his nappy on the potty, so he’s always following - whether it's actions or words. In that respect with the food, Molly has never been a massively picky eater, she just gets on with it. But we’ve gone through the phases of 'I’m not going to eat that today mummy' but I just keep putting it in front of them.
He didn’t want avocado on toast but I kept giving it to him and in the end he liked it. Molly was the same with peas, she’d say 'I don't want peas' so I’d say pick them out and put them on the side then. But for the kids, it’s all games. I say 'You’re not going to be big and strong' and then she ends up eating her peas. I can beat myself that my kids haven’t eaten broccoli or green veg in a week but if I managed to get some carrot or cauliflower down them that’s a win.
