Breakfast

This morning Benjamin held out his empty cereal bowl to me and implored, "More Chex, please?"

"No," I told him, "I think you've had enough. You've already eaten 3 bowls!"

He contemplated the bottom of his empty bowl for a few seconds then reached it out further toward me. "Four bowls?"

Adorable!!!

So...did he get to have a fourth bowl? I'm on pins and needles.

Sorry...I didn't check comments yesterday. Nope. I'm a mean mommy. :) But in my defense, Benjamin loves breakfast so much he doesn't ever know when he's finished and this has caused some major issues, digestively speaking, in the past. Just as a side note: Benjamin has been known to eat 3 FULL ADULT SIZED SERVINGS of oatmeal in one sitting. Clearly moderation is not in his conceptual vocabulary!

Heehee- that's funny. Good counter, that Benjamin! Jordan also liked breakfast. She will eat an adult serving of cereal, AND 6 mini pancakes for breakfast, then 2 hours later will eat a whole carton of yogurt. But then she refuses most lunch or dinner items. :S
