I am getting very tired of trying to keep this skinny kid alive and growing with these options; when does the picky phase end? It's harder in summer, because at least in winter he'll eat the pasta or rice or whatever we have with soups or stews.

Chocolate-covered broccoli, clearly!

You do appear to have the makings of smoothies on the combined list, so you could go full fat on both the milk and the vanilla (bleh) yogurt. Having recently used up a jar of light cream (leftover from ice-cream making) in my morning coffee, I would like to report that milkfat is a wunnerful substance.

Broccoli, wow! SteelyKid says she'll try vegetables when she's our ages.

But yeah, at least she eats meat and dairy products so that we can keep her weight up even as we worry that she's going to get scurvy (no, not really, but you know what I mean). Ugh, sympathies.
