Oatmeal has long played a role in Seb's diet. In fact, both kids start off every day with a bowl of oatmeal and a glass of watered-down juice. In Sophie's case we add a banana or applesauce and in Seb's, it's plain yoghurt and frozen berries/honey/jam/or maple syrup, plus a glass of milk.
Tonight, as I lay on my belly scrubbing and scrubbing the floor under Sophie's highchair (and bemoaning the Toronto transit workers for suddenly going out on strike and thus ruining my weekend for getting about and necessitating M getting called into work again), I understood why this solid breakfast gets both children through the morning. I mean the stuff is sticky, gluey, stick to your ribs/guts, heavy. Banana has those properties too.
Breakfast for my little champions.
