Mickey Mouse Pancakes?!?............"YES PLEASE!"

Eli is in a stage where he does not like to eat. Anthony was not going to be home with for dinner last night so I was not in the mood to cook much. I asked Eli if he wanted several things and it was no he just wanted a snack...meaning JUNK!!! So I got to pancakes. He said no but I told him he could make some for mom with me. He was ok with this. Then it came time to pour them and I had a thought! My Grandma Jenny use to make us Mickey Mouse Pancakes. I know lately  Eli has loved Mickey so I asked him and I got the biggest grin and "YES PLEASE!" He was so excited about this. He loved them so much he asked for them for lunch today. I even managed to get some "just lightly brown." That was my Grandma's term for burned!!! She tried disguising it but it never worked!! Yes our kitchen needs work!! One day when we get all of our other remodels done we will get it done:)

Last night we read together in Eli's bed for a change of pace. Eli thought that was the coolest thing that Lilliana and I were there. The book I read was one I bought when I was about 2 months pregnant with him. I use to read it to him every night before bed when he was an infant. As he got older and picked his own we stopped but he has taken a renewed interest in it. I still have mine from when I was a kid. I loved it. I love Nursery Rhymes. Excuse the fact that I cut off my head. I was using my tripod while we did this so it was an experiment.

He also got caught doing such a kid thing today. I remember doing this as a kid and now I understand why my parents did not allow it! I remember thinking it was such a pain to get the stool so maybe I could get away with it only to have my mom come in and not be very happy with due reason. Needless to say we had a little talk today and tomorrow we will be going to pick out a stool. He was trying to fill his squirt gun.    
 We have been under a tornado watch and had some severe weather tonight. I would go take pictures but honestly, I am a huge baby and do not like severe weather! So you can just imagine wind, lightening, thunder, rain, and the TV constantly giving weather beeps! We had a great day today and I am hoping for a picnic tomorrow for lunch possibly....we will see how the day progresses but that is the plan. Here are some cute pictures of Miss Lilliana. She is also official today as I got her birth certificate...Eli's too since I could not find his but after looking every where I don't think I ever ordered it.
