Salad Days

What's going on at our house this week? Leo is doing a "gymnastics camp for boys" through the parks and rec department from 9-12 every day. Today was his first day, and he seemed to love it. Of course, he told me his favorite thing was jumping - that's always his answer, and he is getting very outdone that I have to ask all the time. OF COURSE his favorite thing is jumping - on the TRAMPOLINE - and I don't need to ask...it should be understood!!

Wednesday, I am taking Henry to have his 9 mos pics made, so watch this spot! I have his dressy outfit - hoping to find a cute casual one tomorrow. If not, he might just have it done in the dressy. He's doing great at crawling. He's slowly figuring out that HE can decide where he wants to go. He crawled from the living room into our bedroom to find Leo the other day and seemed so proud of himself.

And me? I'm just trying to keep everyone fed. Todd takes his lunch to work most days, and Leo still wants a Bento Box even when he eats lunch at home. So this morning I got busy and got several meals done at once...


A - two tuna stuffed tomatoes for Todd and me for supper tonight. I'll put some parmesan on and broil. Leo will have plain tuna.
B - Leo's Monday lunch...peanut butter bagel, prosciutto, pasta, grapes, olives, smoked gouda, marshmallow thingies (he ate all but the prosciutto and grapes)
C - Todd's Tuesday lunch - tuna w/crackers on top, pasta salad w/Gorgonzola, tomato cucumber salad, grapes
D - Leo's Tuesday lunch - tuna w/crackers, pasta, cheese, grapes

I'm proud of myself for getting ahead a little bit! We really love using the Laptop Lunchbox and the Bento Box-style packing.

I saw those Laptop Lunchboxes on one of my "frugal living" web sites - I was wondering if they really work? Does the food all stay separate and neat even without individual lids inside? If so, I might have to get one for Mike! And I just LOVE that pic of Henry - he's such a handsome little man!
