[quote=Anonymous]Your 12 month old will grow up quicker than you assume, so throwing him applesauce, grapes, and peas won't fly in a short time when he will need real meals, and healthy ones at that. Yes, cooking dinner is part of your "job" as Sahm just by virtue of the fact that you have more time to get it on the table. Start putting more effort now so you get some practice and it won't be so hard or daunting. Come up with a small rotation of meals that are easy yet balanced. Throw a pot roast with a bag of carrots in the crockpot on monday. Have black beans and tortillas and guacamole for an "assemble your own taco" on Tuesday. Buy a rotisserie chicken and a bag of frozen broccoli on Wednesday. Leftover chicken sandwiches on Thursday with a salad. Etc. there's "cooking" Julia child style and there's getting dinner on the table. Obviously a lot in the middle, but get dinner on the table, mama. Order it if you have to. But this fend for your self stuff will lead to a lot of isolation. It's the least you can do for your family. [/quote]
