Is Your Toddler a Fussy Eater?

As babies grow into toddlers and begin eating table food, they often times turn into picker eaters. It isn’t unusual for mealtime to turn into a fight with toddlers because they don’t want to eat their dinner. It's easy to want to just avoid the fight and give them what they want, especially if you're worn out from a long day.

Trust me on this one, if you don't stand your ground now you'll either wind up cooking two separate meals or eating pizza or corn dogs every night of the week :)

However for most people, twin strollers are just too expensive for them to be able to purchase more than one or they simply do not have the space.
