Button pancakes and football practice

It was time to shake up breakfast! Jonathon usually makes crepes on Saturday mornings, but since he had a 7:30 meeting (don't feel too bad for him, he was well fed with "the works" breakfast during the meeting.) I don't know about any one else, but breakfast around here is getting pretty boring. So, since we've already had cereal, eggs, waffles and toast this week, it was pancakes again. We all like pancakes, but they are so, well, normal, old, boring, you know what I mean. So, to get the kids to eat their breakfast we tried "button pancakes." They are just like regular pancakes only the size of a silver dollar. Then, instead of eating them with a fork, the fun part is to pick them up and dip them in your own little container of syrup. It actually worked. Olive, who NEVER eats breakfast fell for the novelty and ate 5. I'll mark that one off as a success.





Cedar is finally 5 and we are so excited for his new opportunities in athletics. We chose football for this season, mainly because it's close and a great program. This one is through the local Baptist church (who says Mormon's and Baptist's can't get along?) I love that the focus is on learning, having fun and good sportsmanship. He was so excited today that he wore his Jersey and mouthpiece most of the day.



One more plus for football practice is the little friends that the girls can play with! Yea! Everyone wins!
