Snap, Cracle, Pop

Last night as we were eating supper before Gavin left for Cubbies, I told him that if he ate all of his peanut butter & honey sandwich & peas that he could have some chips. Once he had devoured both of them on his plate, he COMPLETELY surprised me & asked, "Mommy, may I please have some more peas?" He ended up requesting five helpings & finished off the bag. He then told me was too full for chips. Unfortunately, Gunner did not follow suit as he ate his chicken, left his peas untouched, & licked his plate clean of ketchup. His request..."More ketchup, mommy!"

This morning I thought I would suprise the kids & give them some Lucky Charms that I had gotten on sale. We usually eat Pop Pops (aka Rice Krispies) or Honey Kix, so I was thinking this would be a really cool treat. Didn't go over as I had planned. Gavin was intrigued by the shapes so he ate a few bites. Grace enjoyed about 5 marshmellows, & Gunner just kept screaming "Why you cook this?" I ended up dumping three bowls of Lucky Charms & pouring three bowls of the good 'ole Pop Pops.

As a bonus, I 've added this pic of Grace....I heard her whining for me yesterday as her brothers woke her up early from her nap. I wanted her to get some more sleep so I thought I'd give her a few minutes to go back to sleep. The whining stopped so I thought my plan was successful. Lo & behold, I hear a sweet little voice reciting Goodnight Moon. I keep a copy of the book on the dresser beside her rocker which is not reachable from her crib. I crept into her room & found this. She had climed out of her crib, turned her light on, put on her mouse ears, & grabbed her favorite book. Love her!
