Except for the fact that I do have eleventy-twelve boys to feed every day, I find that as we get new kids settled in I don't have time, energy, or desire to think much about food. I have worked to figure out good evening meals that we can all sit down and eat together. But we're spending our time moving dressers and rearranging beds and wrapping sad boys in blankets like a burrito to comfort them at night. I sometimes forget to eat enough during it all. 

 

I'll be ok. I know better than to neglect my health. So that's why I spent 30 minutes this morning quickly throwing together:

These are great grab-and-go snacks that are filling and nourishing. I've eaten at least one of each of them already today, so there you have it. The mom shall now eat and be filled.

This is what I'm pondering right now. Brayden has been on a "what's your favorite..." kick lately, and this was today's. After all, everyone has a favorite kind of train, right?

 

You've never seen a boy that loves trains as much as Brayden loves trains. We read books about trains, build them all day long, talk about them, and apparently today we're considering which trains are our favorites. :) :)

 

Ah! I have made a conclusion! My favorite trains are the ones that keep my children entertained for hours. Yes, I have concluded. These are my favorite. We have three of the same set (thanks to people who give us awesome hand-me-downs), which makes the longest train ever. So much fun!

Tasha just shared this awesome list and you must check it out!
