only the treetops...

both halle and chloe are going through a phase where they don't eat ANYTHING! except peanut butter and honey sandwiches and fish crackers. i usually try to fill them up during the day, but at dinner, i try to encourage them to eat whatever i make. the other night i served chicken alfredo and brocoli. they would have nothing to do with any of it...except the ranch dressing. chloe kept asking for more ranch dressing, and not really paying attention to her, i kept giving her more. then i realized that all she was eating was the ranch dressing. she would dip her brocoli in the dressing and then lick off the dressing, not eating any of the brocoli. finally, her she had to eat the brocoli too, or no more ranch dressing. so she did...but she ate only the treetops of the brocoli. and when she was done with one tree, she asked for more "bocoli". i don't know i thought this was so funny, but i did...and i had to get a picture of it.

all i have to say is thank goodness for vitamins!
