Tommy: It's dinner time mommy?
Me: No. It's 9am.
Tommy: I want dinner.
Me: Are you hungry?
Tommy: Yes. Hungry. Yes dinner. Yes fooooood. (excitement is rising)
Me: What do you want to eat?
Tommy: Uhhhh....uhhh......maca'oni! Annnnnnd.....uhh......uhhhhh....A'CADO! Annnnd.....uhhh....uhhh....a......snanwhich. And, a grapes. And uhhh....maca'oni more!
Me: You just ate 2 bowls of cereal and a kiwi. And you want macaroni, avacado, a sandwich and grapes?
Tommy: Yes. (with a decisive nod)
Me: OK.
And that's why we're having dinner at 9am. Heaven help us when he's a teenager and he eats us out of house and home.

ReplyDeleteThis post is far too familiar for someone who is so far ahead on the child-raising road. (Taylor started baking a cake at 9:30 last night.)
Wonder how tall he'll be tomorrow :D What a cutie.
ReplyDeleteummmmm....sick kids are the pits. You feel bad for them, you feel bad for you. Hope he gets better soon.
ReplyDeleteThree things: 1)Tommy looks SOO big and grown up in that picture! 2)I love how you said "still" in pajamas at 9 am. I'm pretty sure there's something wrong at our house if we're NOT in pjs at 9...me included! :) 3)SO sorry I haven't picked a day yet. This week is turning kinda crazy BUT I did find out yesterday that I can use my TP pass to get into the Discovery museum so YAY for saving money! I could do this Thurs or Wed, Thurs, Fri next week so take your pick!
ReplyDeleteI love your blog. It always makes me laugh! Tommy is a doll, and you are a nice mom for giving him what he wants.
