| He's growing up too fast. |
Mine is the yellow plate, and considering I didn't finish all that summer sausage (which was the 2oz serving size), I ate the same amount of food as a 6 year-old. That blows my mind.

Me and the Kid
I'm solo parenting this week while my husband is on a business trip. He goes away on business so rarely, that it's always a little weird. I stay up too late watching TV, and the 6 year-old and I eat macaroni too often. Before dad went out of town, we took him to see Iron Man 3 and he was SO excited, he could barely stop bouncing.
Last night, we took a break from macaroni and fish sticks (one of his favorites) to eat one of the light dinners he likes. Summer sausage, smoked gouda (he's very particular about his cheeses) and Ritz whole grain crackers (he doesn't know about the whole grain part). This meal could use some vegetables, but he won't eat them, and I needed more protein.

Darling picture! Hope you enjoy the rare alone time with your kiddo
ReplyDeleteThanks Rachel! It's nice having him to myself for a bit.
DeleteLove the updated pics!! And I can really tell I'm hungry, because I want to claw that sausage out of my computer and snarf it :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Mon! Wish I could have given you my extra summer sausage, since I'm not as fond of it. But I found a beef one that has only like 130 calories per serving. Score!
DeleteYour son is adorable. :) Love the glasses.
ReplyDeleteI love summer sausage, but I am the only one in the house who does so I almost never buy it :(
ReplyDeleteCute photo of both of you!
ReplyDeleteSooooo cute - BOTH of you! That was the one silver lining I realized, when my husband used to travel a LOT when my (now teens) were little - dinners were SO EASY!! Pb&J, grilled cheese, scrambled eggs, macaroni, fruit and cheese...very easy to please us, lol! Your dinner looks small but yum. :-) I think I'd add grapes or berries. ;-D Oh, and I'm loving your son's cheese choice!!
ReplyDeleteyour son is so cute! that is one of our favorite meals too!
ReplyDeleteThanks ladies! He is the cutest. And good call, Cheri! Next time: fruit too.
