LO is 14 months. Bacon fried rice and salmon, hard boiled egg, smushed blueberries and veggies! This was from last Friday. She ate everything but had 3 leftover blueberries.

What a fun thread!! I hope to do this with LO

I got home from work at 8 last night and after dinner and getting Owie ready for bed/bottles, I didn't get a chance to work on Owie's bento until after midnight. I ended up making the egg at 12:30! I had intentions of stir-frying some bell peppers and mushrooms also but that will have to wait until tonight.

I was thinking during the whole time, "This is crazy - he's just a baby and it's so late. You should just go to bed" but when I was dropping him off at daycare this morning they told me he loved yesterday's lunch and just gobbled everything and it made it all worth it. (of course I'm typing this with a big cup of coffee next to me). =D

Pineapple, shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheese, scrambled eggs with parsley and onion powder (great minds think alike, @regberadaisy!!), bolgogi, grapes, sumo tangerines

Grapefruit, sliced corn, ham, chicken dumplings and a hardboiled egg.

@lisa1783: I had a night like you described last night as well! I was making oatmeal for the morning and packing lunches past midnight..

We kind of do bento right now, but not exactly, since I still pack DS a hot lunch that needs to be microwaved. But he is transitioning to toddlers where there is no fridge, so I will be bento'ing soon enough. I am also going to transition DD to more of a bento style to deal with her chronic constipation. Will post pics soon!

One from last week -- macaroni, sausage and egg, raspberries. Breakfast and snack similar to above!

these are all awesome! I can't wait to do this for my LO when the time comes:)

These are from a few months ago when watching a friends girl (planet lunchbox).

Day 1: frozen yogurt, raisers, other fruit and sunflower seeds, hummus and veggies and a half sunbutter and jelly bagel which
Him: hot dog, sweet potato taters and bacon, fruit cup, carrots, sunflower seeds.

Day 2 her: leftover subway sandwich, fruit, sweet potato taters and bacon, and carrots

Day 3 her:sunbutter and fruit, egg cup, bacon and cookie, tortilla roll up with hummus and veggies

I love bento boxes. Even bought one for myself to take to work. Eating is so much more fun when there's a variety! Can't wait to bento for my little one!

@regberadaisy: How did the falafal fingers turn out? I've been meaning to try them.

@mediagirl: I offered them as is and he did great with them.

LOVE this thread and my LO isn't even born yet. I love all the creativity. Keep it coming, ladies!

@winniebee: lol, my daughter didn't eat some of her corn yesterday...I think she is finally sick of it! I think I will make pasta tonight so I can use it for the next 2 days!

@autumnlove: that looks so good! i wish i had that for myself!

@winniebee: Owie rejected all his repeats yesterday also. This is the issue with them starting to remember stuff.

Today's meal: fruit medley, Cheerios, blueberry yogurt, sweet bell pepper and mushroom stirfry

@winniebee: We got it from the big Whole Foods at Legacy Place. Have you been there yet? uh.mazing. It's even bigger than the Cambridge Whole Foods.

I love this thread! I need to get B on this but I'm waiting for him to get better at feeding himself.
