Reflective Monday -Sticker Me Up!!

Monkey boy

My boys simply love playing with stickers. Just look at them going wild with the book of Mickey Mouse stickers that I bought for them.

Roy will go ” Mummy.. Here!!!,here… and here!!” pointing to the parts of his hands which he wants the stickers to go on.

Ryan on the other hand uses it as a “weapon” from escaping dinner time.

“Ryan eat your dinner. NOW!!” I would order him after seeing him playing around with the food for more then 20 mins

“Hmmm……!!!” he would say meaning-” Mummy, I can’t eat!! I’m been Plastered!!”

[* An extremely good reason for not finishing his dinner]

Talk about innovative ways of using a sticker.

Reflective Monday #10- Noodle Baby

Dominique Thoughts Noodle Baby, Roy, Ryan

Both my kids are simply crazy over noodles. If they could every meal would consist of noodles- Cold Soba, Hot Udon, Fried Udon, Handmade La mian, Ramen, Mee Pok etc. * As you can see we are very unaffected by the rising cost of rice *

Roy has an extremely weird way of eating noddles. He will only take one strand at a time. It is really time consuming feeding him. If you try to “bluff” him by inserting more then one strand into his mouth he will promptly spit out the noodles and you will need to start feeding him all over again.

Ryan and Roy take “plain noodles” that means without any pieces of meat or vegetable attached to it. There goes my hope of getting them to eat both noodles and vegetables in the same mouthful.
