We decided today that Nathan's would be Nate "the Pit".
When his eating was at its worst, before we knew what was wrong, when we were tyring to fix him with Pediasure (Nice cold glass of allergen, coming right up!) we had daily calorie counts where his breakfast numbered 13 raisins and we felt really, really good about that. His breakfast today would have seemed like really really good intake for a whole day back then.
Today, at 5 am he drank 4 ounces of Elecare.
A few hours later, at breakfast with mommy, he ate: 3/4 of a slice of cinnamon sugar toast, about 20 blueberries, 2 1/2 slices of turkey bacon and 4 ounces of mango juice
Just about an hour later he sat with daddy and ate 1 1/2 whole mangoes
Lunch was 1 1/2 chicken nuggets, a couple hand fulls of cinnamon sugar Chex, 1/2 cup of cereal/raisin mix, and 8 ounces of 30 calorie per ounce Elecare
For dinner he ate 3 1/2 slices of chicken lunchmeat (no nitrates!), a piece of vegan rice cheese, 1/2 a mango, and 6 cherriesBedtime snack of 4 ounces of Elecare
Either he's gearing up for a growth spurt or he's sprung a leak somewhere . . .

Nate "the Fruit Bat" has also come up as a mob name contender.
Why bother to peel the mango? - More fiber this way.
