Avoiding bed or really hungry?

It is always hard to tell on Wednesday night after church if the kids are really hungry when we get home or just trying to avoid going to bed. We usually eat before church since it starts at 7:30. Tonight the girls were whining that they were still hungry so I said,"you can have corn, green beans, or garbanzo beans (which were the first three vegetables I found in the pantry) if you are hungry." They picked green beans and have nearly devoured the whole can. They must really have been hungry tonight. Usually when faced with canned veggies or any other options they take the other option. Either way it is still a win win for me because at least they ate vegetables.

Gator boys

So the kids and I are all a little sickly today. I think it is just a cold, but we all have slight fevers and aches. In an effort to keep the kids calm and not wanting to watch anymore Thomas the Trains I turned on Gator Boys. The show is about guys who go around and catch alligators that are bothering people. One guy uses PVC pipe and a rope to catch gators in the water. The problem is now the kids are playing gator and chasing each other around with a paint stick they're using as a catch pole. Abigail had now learned to "train" Isaac the alligator by feeding him cheerios as gator snacks. Fun times at our house.
