Toddler Food

Aiden is somewhat of a picky eater. Of course, he eats fruit, any fruit, like candy and he doesn't do too bad eating veggies. If he could he'd only eat broccoli and peas, but he'll also eat carrots and I hide cauliflower and sometimes squash and spinach in his food. Our struggle is getting protein in that kid. He won't eat meat unless it's pureed and hidden in food. If he wants to be a vegetarian that is fine with me, but our protein is limited to eggs, cheese, and beans. I feel like he eats too much cheese and we are stuck in a rut. I really need more recipes in my bank that are toddler friendly. Any ideas? PLEASE share any recipe that your toddler really likes.

Have you tried any of the Deceptivley Delicious recipes? They have a pretty good chicken nugget one.

And I never thought I would become this - but I'm a ketchup mom. Taylor will eat her meat as long as she has the ketchup.

Apple Creek

 A new year, a new orchard. This year we tried out Apple Creek Orchard and it was a really pretty place. We picked apples, took a hay ride, and the boys had fun with the apple slinger. We were joined by Tom's parents and it feels so good to have them now living close by instead of far away.

Almost to the finish line.

 It's hard to believe that Aiden turns 18 in one week and walks through graduation in just one month. After more than a decade of homeschooling, 2 years of PSEO, and no less than one million moments that I'll treasure forever, my oldest will be an adult and graduated. Great things are ahead for my boy!

Happy Birthday, Cade!

 My littlest is seven and it's hard  not to be sad. We couldn't be without him, and we're so glad he's ours.  At seven years old Cade loves to do what everyone else is doing. He will NOT play by himself, and maybe it's because he's used to having someone to entertain him all the time. He loves legos and soccer. He also loves to read. I am ALWAYS finding Cade trying to tackle reading a book he probably isn't quite ready for. Lately he's been trying to read The Hobbit. While he's able to read all the words, he just doesn't have the depth of understanding to read it independently quite yet. He LOVES Tom Sawyer so he was delighted to find an abridged version to read.  Cade makes up his own mind about things. He will NOT be bossed around. He holds his own, so I don't worry about his brothers pushing him over. Cade also won't be pushed over physically. He is one tough kid. If Cade is crying, I know he is actually hurt because he never cries ove...
