Food consumption.

James has been battling some pesky illnesses earlier this spring and said illnesses have really hampered his appetite.  We could start to see his ribs and his pants would fall down due to lack of any junk in trunk.  However, this past week he's been feeling good and making up for lost time like crazy, which makes us very happy.  

James will now say "eat" and will make his way up onto the table and then lower himself into his booster seat chair.   He will just sit there and say "eat" or "hot" until we bring him something to eat.  Mind you, this isn't just at established meal times but 8-10 times a day.  He got so skinny that we aren't exactly being too careful of what he's eating either, we'll give him pretty much anything he wants and as much of it as he wants.  For example, we bought a gigantic bag of sun chips from Costco on Monday night and they only lasted till Wednesday afternoon or so.  One of his other favorites is tator tots. He'll dip half of the tot in ketchup and then bite off only the section with ketchup on it.  He'll then place the half eaten tot to the side and work his way through the whole tots until he's dipped and eaten half of them all.  Then he'll make his way back to the half eaten tots, dip them in ketchup again and finish them off.  Kids do weird/funny stuff.  

In any case it's good to have him eating, even though at this rate we are changing 3 bad diapers a day.
