The incredible growth-spurty-toddler,
Is quite sight to behold…
We can’t ever get enough food in,
To fuel our bottomless two-year-old.
The incredible growth-spurty-toddler,
Is a fish finger eating machine.
Just when I think it might be over,
She demands lasagne and licks the plate clean.
The incredible growth-spurty-toddler,
Is devouring her fruity five-a-day.
She’s popping whole grapes without chewing,
Shame they tend to come out the same way…
The incredible growth-spurty-toddler,
Is eating me out of humous, house and home…
If anyone saw how much pizza she eats,
I’d have child services on the phone.
The incredible growth-spurty-toddler,
Munches ALL DAY but still remains thin.
Which frankly just makes me bastard jealous,
So I’ll just be over here with my gin…
(…and cake…)
(…and gincake…)

Toddlers are like Gremlins.

ReplyHa, brilliant. Growth spurt…or worms, I can never decide. But opt for the former. Swear my oldest has grown a foot since the beginning of term (she says, sounding like her grandma).

ReplyI wish mine would eat so much! My 5 year old is like a sparrow! 😀
ReplyI'm certain within a week we'll be back to yoghurt only with the occasional breadstick. lol 😉
ReplyIt's either famine or feast here but they're contrary. You watch, next week you'll have to write a poem about how you can't get her to eat anything except cake… 😉
ReplyIf she could, she would…. *sighs* lol x
