Today was a wee bit tougher than yesterday. I think Daniel may be suspecting that things are a bit different. He asked for chicken nuggets a few times today and threw a big fit because I didn't have any. (I plan to make them this week, but hadn't quite made it that far yet). He also refuses to drink anything but juice at the moment and isn't eating much fruit other than apples. He absolutely loves the "panda bear cereal" (gf peanut butter puffs) and asked for it all day long. I did give in 3 times, but it was paired with other things that were healthy.
One thing my husband and I have both noticed these past two days is the increase in temper tantrums. I know tantrums are common in 2 and 3 year olds, but Daniel was never one to throw lots of them. Maybe 2 or 3 week, but not 2 or 3 a day! Many of the tamtrums are related to me attempting to potty train him, but it is still high. Could this be related to the diet? Maybe he is becoming more aware of his surroundings and therefore feels he can complain about them?
Our day was pretty typical other than driving my husband to work this morning (again.Darn car!). So here was our menu:
Breakfast
Peanut Butter Panda Puffs; Orange juice (Daniel)
Chex; Almond Milk (me)
Lunch
Rice Cake with Peanut Butter; Strawberries;
Ham, Spinach, and Tomato on Rice Tortilla; Potato Chips; Cherries; Sweet Tea (me)

Snacks
Lots of Peanut Butter Puffs; Sunflower Seeds; Apple Slices
