Are there any children who don’t love jello? Especially jello that you are supposed to eat with your hands. I made jigglers today and the boys were so excited when I pulled them out of the fridge after dinner. Ruslan clearly enjoyed it.
It’s no secret that Wyatt loves sweets and jello is no . . . → Read More: Finger Licking Good

 Allday yesterday Juliana insisted that it was her Sunday to go to church with my parents. We had decided that it was Ruslan’s turn to go this week and she was not happy. We asked her why she wanted to go to church and she replied that G (my dad) buys a chocolate donut with sprinkles for her to . . . → Read More: My Kids Will Trade Anything for a Donut

As we were leaving Kindergarten screening yesterday (more on that later), each child was given a gift bag. It included a snack and juice box, several books, large foam dice, dominoes and other assorted learning toys. There were 3 stacks of flash cards as well – alphabet cards, initial sound cards and rhyming cards. . . . → Read More: Juliana as a Teacher

 Bacon and especially BLT Sandwiches remind me of childhood summer visits to my grandparent’s house in Erie. We always had BLTs for lunch at least once while we were there and always ate them outside. They had a huge backyard with a large in-ground pool and we were usually dripping from the pool when we . . . → Read More: Bacon Memories

 I don’t usually buy the single-serving containers of Jello – it’s much more expensive than buying a box and making it at home. But we had some in the fridge so I handed a container and spoon to each of the boys after dinner last night and in exchange I was entertained and had a . . . → Read More: JELLO

 Juliana and I went to Target one morning and I told her she could pick out an ice cream treat. She selected cotton candy flavored push-up pops (I was saddened that she didn’t want the orange sherbet ones). We had them poolside one day and Juliana happily sat and enjoyed one or two of . . . → Read More: How to Eat a Push-Up Pop

 Her current favorite treat is a strawberry with a small hole cut into the top for some cool whip and a blueberry. And of course a spoonful of cool whip on the side.

 I don’t want anyone to think that Wyatt doesn’t eat just because he is a picky eater and he is a tall and skinny like his sister. The key is it has to be something that he likes. While Ruslan picks up his food with the tips of his fingers, Wyatt prefers the shovel-with-both-hands, . . . → Read More: He Does Eat When He Wants

 Juliana is a picky eater – she doesn’t like to try new foods, she tells me she doesn’t like things or that she is allergic to them if she doesn’t want to eat. I wanted to do a better job with the boys – have them like more foods and not be afraid to . . . → Read More: Are Picky Eaters Born or Made?

Even though they will be 12 months next week, this post reflects their activities at 11 months.
Month 11 was the month of mobility and exploring lots of finger foods. They are a bit like puppies, crawling all over the place, chewing on everything, and making lots of noise. Sometimes they travel as a . . . → Read More: 11 Months Old
