Food that Soars & Roars

{ this morning's breakfast:
airplane pancakes w/ strawberries, blueberries & bananas }
Mealtimes are inevitably the most difficult part of the day.  Not because the boys are picky eaters (they eat pretty much everything) but trying to get them both to sit down long enough to finish a meal is the real challenge (and not to mention cleaning up the mess they're sure to leave)!  CJ particularly has a very short attention span and we often find ourselves having to entertain him at the dining room table during mealtimes with stories or coloring or playing with cars.  I'm sure this is a bad habit to instill, but some days you gotta do what you gotta do.

I've also learned to be creative with the food.  Pancakes are a huge hit especially when they come in the shape of airplanes and dinosaurs (thanks courtesy to good ol' Wilton cookie cutters).  What's better than food that soars and roars?!
