Lydia... our little herbivore...

Lydia has always been a great eater. Even when she was tiny and first starting out on solid foods she rarely refused to eat something. In fact, the only "solid" she refused was baby food peaches... I can't really blame her - especially when you compare it to the real thing!

Anyway, one thing that Lydia has always liked since starting to eat "table food" has been "lettuce crunchies" (AKA Romaine lettuce hearts). Generally we'll pick them out of our salads and give them to her. When she was about 2 she enjoyed dipping the "lettuce crunchies" in "Opa Lettuce Shep" (lettuce ketchup - AKA "Garlic Expressions Salad Dressing" - Bree's dad's favorite salad dressing.) Well, the other night John and I were eating a caesar salad & Lydia decided to hijack the entire bowl & actually proceeded to eat & finish the entire thing! How many 4 year olds do you know that would do that?

Digging in...

YUMMO!!!

Taking a juice break...

Finishing it off!

Looks like John will have to 'fight' for the leftovers.
