Why do I even try ?

Some days we like to hang out at home but instead of relaxing the kids put me to work. Just the other day Merrick asked for tacos for breakfast, FOR BREAKFAST what the heck? And on this particular day after slaving in the kitchen to make gingerbread men the boys asked for Homemade Pizza for lunch. I figured why not this way I can have pizza left over for dinner for Sean and the boys will fill up early and then we can head to the park on full stomachs. But as you can see from the picture sometimes pizza sounds fun to make but not always what your really in the mood for. The pizza turned out great but I was trying to watch my figure so I opted for Chili (not sure if it's better?) and Merrick ate a few slices but then wanted cereal. Memphis just played with his pet dinosaur....
until...


Merrick walked away from his cereal then Memphis went in as the clean-up crew. He does this a-lot around here and every time he does it just cracks me up. He just slides abandoned plates towards himself and starts digging in. At some point I should limit his seconds but for now I think I will let him continue this janitorial effort to waste less food in our home. Besides his cheeks are still in the cute category right?

You are so so creative. I need to get some of that creative juice into my system. I love that you just make gingerbread boys or pizza or tacos on a whim!
