The things I do to get this kid to eat

Ricotta cheese drizzled with vitamin-enriched baby olive oil, avocado pieces and bread sticks presented colorfully. Will he take the bait?
Well, he did eat the bread sticks out of the Dylan cup...

Dylan is just not the eater he once was and getting him to eat at least two square meals a day is a struggle. He does usually eat most of his lunch or dinner but never all of both meals. And he snacks throughout the day on yogurt and fruit. I'm getting really tired of people commenting on how skinny he is. Height-wise, he has shot up and so he's looking pretty lanky. I read an article saying I should present his foods "Bento box" style in colorful containers. I've been trying it with mixed results. Below is a video I took when I thought I was taking a normal picture. It's kind of cute though it gets cut off in the middle.



When Dylan gets his picture taken, he says "gorgonzola" instead of "cheese." He has his own particular way of pronouncing "gorgonzola"
