The Breakfast of Champions

Meal time with Maeve occasionally leaves me mystified.

She's far less picky than the toddler but isn't as capable in the chewing/not gagging department of eating.

Today for breakfast she ate:

cheerios

tiny apple pieces

turkey

cheese

She eats a lot of veggies and yogurt and toast; but now that she's on her weight gain diet I've added in whole milk, mac and cheese, pudding (calcium--right?) and mini hot dog niblets *shudder.*

So what I'm writing to say is....

Any ideas out there for a baby trying to bulk up?

Cause I'm out =)

Mommy, We Got A Visit From The FireFighterMen And The FireFighterMen High-Fived Me!

Amelie's preschool received a special visit from a local fire company!

Pink arrow over Amelie's head, you know, so you can see the star of the show!

In the truck!

Yay for fun pictures!

Thanks so much Debby!

Boo! At The ZOO! And The Tale Of The Sunday Slackers.

Today we were horrible slackers and decided to skip church (*gasp!*) and head out to celebrate Boo! At the Zoo! The zoo's annual trick or treating event!

I can't even remember the last time none of us were in church...so it was a little strange but we had Maeve skip her morning nap, bundled up in warm clothes, dressed Amelie in a "costume" (just a tutu--i didn't want her to drag her new costume through the zoo) and headed out! It was a beautiful morning and the zoo was very busy when we got there just as it opened. Apparently it is a VERY popular event!

We had a WONDERFUL time--the zoo was lovely and full of fall foliage, little ones dressed up in their sweet costumes and candy candy everywhere!

They also had a little treasure hunt where if you collected all of the stamps you won a prize--let's just say, give the Mama a mission and she gets excited.

I charged through the zoo with my loved ones and solved the puzzle and got Amelie a weird little card game--oh well, the prize was a let down but the scenery and the candy was fabulous =)

They really got into the whole Fall decorating thing-even the BEARS were eating pumpkins! Fun!
