Do a lot of two year olds go through a weird eating phase?

My son likes oatmeal... a lot. That's pretty much all he'll eat. I guess it could be worse and he could only want french fries or something, but do a lot of 2 year olds go through a phase where they only like to eat one thing?
 
Yes it is very normal. See if maybe you can get him to eat a small jar of baby food fruit mixed in with his oatmeal to be sure he's getting vitamin C and such. If he likes spaghetti try mixing in baby food veggies into the sauce so he's getting enough veggies. My sister also mixes them into her meatloaf and such for her picky eaters and they never know. If you have too much trouble getting him to eat anything other than oatmeal you could try giving him pedia-sure to help supplement the vitamins and minerals he needs and talking to his doctor to see what ideas he has.
