Dinner with kids...

Dinner was a tad chaotic tonight. 

Six and a half of us (the half being Miss H), sat down to eat the evening meal.  Miss H had been saying how hungry she was, but after one bite of a BBQ'd sausage, she said she was no longer hungry.  She hopped down from the dinner table and I continued with my meal.  Next minute Baby O was crying... after having been asleep for 45 minutes or so.  I scoffed my meal quickly with Miss O on my shoulder, then relocated to the couch to feed her. 

Normally we wouldn't give Miss H desert if she hadn't eaten the main part of the meal, but tonight we did.  Desert consisted of brandy snap baskets with cream and berries.  Miss H ate the berries and snorted the cream, but showed no interest in the sugary goodness that is a brandy snap!

After bath and PJs she started going on about how hungry she was(I would be too if all I had had for dinner was cream!),  we stuck with our guns saying she could enjoy breakfast the following morning. 

She went to bed a bit hungry, but hopefully will learn to eat a bit more of what is served for dinner, and not expect whatever she wants later on when dinner is over and done with!
