Lucas's First Real Dinner

Lucas is such a picky eater that I generally end up cooking one thing for Jen and I, and then making Lucas either something completely different or at least a heavily modified version. This isn't what I want to be doing for the rest of his childhood/teenage years. The goal is that he eats what we eat. So I decided to start transitioning him that way. I started off light on him, by making something I was pretty sure he would eat all of and that Jen and I would like too. I made some chicken strips by breading chicken with Bisquick and baking it, along with some oven fries and corn. And he ate every bite! It's weirdly satisfying to have your child eat everything you want him to when it's been a kind of struggle for 2ish years.
