our daughters are 5 and 6, and we've noticed a marked spike in their appetites over the last few weeks. used to be we'd give 'em a little plate of whatever, and they'd eat maybe 3/4s. now they're asking for seconds and thirds. we've started giving them much larger portions, and they down it and half a gallon of milk at dinner. thankfully, the wife is a pro at coupon clipping and deal hunting. our grocery bills rarely exceed $50-60 a week, though that might change with the way the girls' appetites are growing exponentially.
