Amaro's Healthy Eats

 Amaro is two going on three in September.

That means he's in his "terrible two's". Tantrums, shouting when excited,

and loving a food one day, only to hate it the next, are the norm.

We're working on it, believe me.

Like most toddlers, he's a picky eater.

But luckily for me, there's a list of healthy choices he always loves. Usually.
