    I'm not a vegetarian, nor am I a mother so I don't really have anything to say on the matter. I'm just here to tell you your kid is cute! :happy: I wanna pinch her cheeks!

    Thank you very much. The hat she is wearing was sent to me from MFP member cbeutler. All hail the baby Viking! All hail the hat!

    My only comment is that if you raise your children to be vegetarian, then ensure they eat vegetables. My cousin's children were raised vegetarian for religious reasons. They are now teenagers and they refuse to eat anything other than chips, macaroni and cheese, cheezits, french fries. No salad, baked potatoes, vegetables of any kind. I can outwalk the 19 year old on the golf course and I'm 57 and overweight.

    Don't worry about that. I eat tons of vegetables. I didn't as a kid because my mom always fed me way overcooked vegetables or crap from cans. Gross. Now as an adult, I eat more vegetables in a week than I probably did in 2-3 months. I love veggies now!

    My children have grown up vegan and vegetarian and are the pictures of perfect health. Feel free to add me.
