I have a son who is 8 years and about four months. He weighs about 48 to 50 pounds, so we are trying to feed him all the time, and make him finish his meals. I always feed him up with ice cream after bedtime, after we do math and read Gordon Korman.

Honey just had that bad cold thingy that is going around. He lost about 4 lbs in 2 weeks. He weighs 36 and my 2 yo DD weighs 33. It is weird to see them share clothes. I started him on Pediasure and it seems to help. The stuff is really expensive, but if it works it is worth it. I give him only one can a day, but you can use it as total nutrition. Might be worth asking the doctor about.

he refuses pediasure but I do give him carnation breakfast its chocolat powder and he thinks I'm giving him plain chocolat milk. funny that your 2yo is 33 pounds I thought my baby (just turned 2 in dec) was huge... its weird when I fold clothes I have to check the size.

Katie is a serious popcorn junkie...she can go through a six pack in a day. I finally started buying the extra butter so she'd get some extra calories in. Between that and switching to Strattera, she's finally starting to put on weight.

I probably should've mentioned, Honey doesn't know he is talking pediasure. I keep it cold and add chocolate syrup (to vanilla) so he thinks it is chocolate milk. It might not work since your son is older and probably wiser!
