$4.50??? Wait, having a kid is pricey?

So, yesterday we met Brooke, Nash, and Margot at Whole Foods for a quick hello. I decided to get some lunch for Maya, since she had just taken a long nap and was asking for food. I got the smallest cup of soup, and put a little chicken noodle, some minestrone, and a couple of tofu cubes inside. When it rang up as $4.50, I shrugged it off, assuming it would last 3 or more meals... guess what? She ate the whole thing! Well, she ate out all the chunkiness, leaving a meager bowl of broth. Hmph. I guess this is about the time that feeding a child becomes expensive! Good to know...
"Whole Foods is the best, Mommy!"

"What can I play with?"

"Wait! I see a cup on the floor!"

"Gimme!"

"Thank you. I can now play drums with this cup."

"More soup, please."

"I ate the whole bowl!"

"Wait, Aunt Deb! My mouth is full of noodles!"
