chocolate chip mickey mouse pancakes

August 8, 2008

You are all about the walking now, teetering here and there. Exploring has taken on a whole new dimension and perspective. It has to be wearing you out, both physically and mentally, that and the staying away from home, slightly out of our routine. You woke up crying hard again this morning, and when I hear it, every muscle in my body tenses and my heart sinks. I know it probably means you did not get all if your sleepies out, and it most likely foreshadows a day with increased whining and crying episodes. So far it has meant just that.

You ate a great breakfast—a handful of Cheerios, dried bananas and strawberries, 5 ounces of milk and a chocolate chip Mickey Mouse pancake made especially for you by Aunt Jates, supermom extraordinaire. I’m serious; she is. And she’s a pretty good aunt too. You loved them.
