Spaghetti is SO NOT a finger food but you know what if Wee-one wants to eat it with his hands, so be it :)! He's eating it, isn't he?! He was trying to "twist" it around the fork like Hubs and I do but just hasn't quite mastered that yet (geez I'm 32 years old and haven't mastered that yet...well for the most part). Wee-one ate sauce tonight too. SAUCE people! And spaghetti, LOTS AND LOTS of spaghetti. I think I refilled his plate 3 times. Of course some of it was in his lap but most made it into his mouth. Spaghetti night was a success! Of course the cheesy green beans went untouched (by Wee-one anyway). He ALMOST ate one when he accidentally picked one up with his fork but he realized it before he popped it into his mouth..silly boy!
Not sure why he's been eating so good lately but I think it's awesome! I noticed his last 2 year molar FINALLY popped through so maybe that has something to do with his eating lately. Or maybe he's growing again. I have noticed some of his pants are kinda on the short side lately. Now if we could just figure out the sleeping part..we'd be set.
I guess I can't complain too much about Wee-ones sleeping. He has really settled into our bedtime routine. We finally had to implement a really set bedtime after we realized "flying by the seat of our pants" at bedtime and letting him go to bed anywhere between 8:30 and 9:30 was so NOT ok. I read a book that told me that strict bedtime routines are a must for some kids. I always swore left, right, up, down and sideways that my child wouldn't be one of "those" kids on such a strict routine. Well guess what...bedtime routine is just that...it's routine. The same thing night after night and at the same time. It's worked wonders. However Wee-ones been having nightmares and some nights he wakes up a few times wanting to just be held for a few minutes. Fine by me..I'll take all the cuddles I can get. I'm thankful he usually goes back to bed pretty quick. Some early mornings he's up for the day at 4:30 or 5:30. Not sure why that is...I don't pretend to have all the answers...LOL :)! We never know what the next day is going to bring. I guess that's what keeps life exciting, right?! :)
Being a parent is such a great adventure. Don't get me wrong..I have my "pulling out my hair moments" but all in all Wee-one is just a GREAT child and Hubs and I are extremely blessed. Tomorrow night is breakfast for supper at our house. I'm making Pumpkin Pancakes. I'll post the recipe for those tomorrow. I figured no one needs a recipe for Spaghetti and Meat Sauce...it's all pretty easy (and on the package of noodles and cans/jars of sauce)...HA :)!! Good night!
