Saturday Supper Saga

It all began with a simple menu of Baked Spaghetti with meatballs and fresh garlic toast. I love making baked spaghetti and the kids and McDreamy love to eat it. Baked Spaghetti feels so fancy, tastes divine and is really nothing more than leftovers. I picked up a few nice individual ceramic dished that go from freezer to oven so this is also the perfect meal to make when you spend a little too much time shopping and need to whip up a meal in flash.
So there we were enjoying our yummy dinner while the Sprout sat at watched each forkful disappear...until he decided ENOUGH! He had smacked his little fat lips long enough, was he not part of this family too?! He always sits nicely at the table with us and minds his manners very well but never gets to eat with us sooooo........Mommy introduced the Big Boy Cup.

And the Sprout took to it like a fish to water! Look at the big boy grip! Way to go cup makers this teething baby loves the special nipple made specifically for teethers. Sprout chomped and chewed with a smile in his heart and a giggle in his belly!

Sassy was both happy and sad to see her little gift do something so grown up and not need her! It was a good thing Sassy also had her camera handy because she was about to catch a shot she is going to send into Mystery Hunters. No it was not a Sasquatch, not a spacecraft, not the Turtle Lake Monster but very close..........

And that ends my Saturday Saga for today. Tune in next week for more riveting events. What will the menu be? Will the baby recite Shakespeare next? Maybe McDreamy will magically learn where the vacuum is?

We had baked spaghetti last night too! Obviously great minds think alike. How did you get him to do that, McDreamy I mean?

My gosh I am completely blown away at how much The Sprout looks like your mother... what is her nickname anyway... it is an amazing resemblance!
