I think babies and little children will eat exactly right, if their tastes and appetites are left to develop naturally - which usually means without having too much sugar pushed on them. I think several people here - I was one - have mentioned being pressured to eat more than they wanted to, or things they didn't want to, in childhood, which contributed to our relationship with food getting off to a bad start. I'm glad your little ones, boys and girl, are getting a much better start.

feeling sluggish this morning, hit a quick 100 pushups and hope it is cool enough to get out and get stuff done today. Had a few drops of rain last night but not enough to make any difference to the water level in the house tank, will probably need to buy a tanker load before xmas.
my boys are no longer little lol, they ar age 24, 22 and 20
just a quick update before likely loosing power, big lightening storm incoming, mostly dry strikes bad winds, hubby was on his way back from deployment but redirected back out to a fire caused by a strike, looks nasty outside. Time to batten down and hope for the best. If I loose power I may not be posting for a while.
Best of luck with both the power and the storm.
storm is over with mixed blessings
we did not get the rain hoped for however, the storm split around our property, going either side (the hills that stop all mobile reception etc are to blame)
power stayed on, we did not get hit by the house destroying hail (larger than cricket balls measuring 10 cm diameter) gladly missed out on the tornado that formed just past where my son works but it harmed nobody, I can see some very large branches down, but will not know if any large trees are down or if I can even get out to the road until I head outside. Time now to go out check for major damage and pick little miss up from childcare.
The moisture has not cooled anything down, just made the humidity worse.

Oh, heck! What a barrage of various kinds of wild weather. Those dry lightning strikes are so dangerous - the more so after the lack of rain. Best wishes for there to be no more fires.
As for this:
The joke's on me!

Sounds like doomsday weather!
Another hot one again today, this is the temp reading in the shade on my verandah this morning, we have not reached the peak for the day yet. Too hot to be doing anything physical, no exercise, food minimal, too hot to eat.
Edit - Somebody else from the other side of town just reported 44 in the shade, it is a killer day out there, good for weight loss as nobody feels like eating much in this heat.

Wow, we had a bad hail storm here about 3 years ago, destroyed the peach crop broke a few windows and did a lot of damage, but no hail stones anywhere near that big!
Awful!
