Getting the boy to eat!

As he gets older, I'm having an easier time getting the boy to eat. Today was chicken and scalloped potatoes. I had to threaten him with no Scooby Doo, since that's what he wants to watch ALL THE TIME! "Okay, time for another bite," I'd say. And he'd say, "NO!" and then I'd say, "Then I'm going to turn off Scooby Doo." And then he'd take a bite. So we played this little game for a while, until it was all gone! Woohoo! Next will be getting him to sit in his chair to eat. LOL. I'm also trying to get better about cooking actual food, and making meals, which I'm not terribly good at. I can do it, but I'm lazy. Okay, so maybe I'm overwhelmed. That feeling of being overwhelmed makes me shut down, and then I don't do anything. It's good for me, too, since I take food to work, rather than buying it out...it's cheaper to bring it to work.
