Good Morning Maddie.

Every morning after we wake up, I ask Maddie what she would like for breakfast. She almost always replies "cereal" unless some muffins are lying around or I've had an ambitious morning and made some pancakes or something like that. So, then I ask her to pick out which kind she would like and this is the result:


Yes, she actually carries every single box out of the pantry and wants them all combined in the same bowl. I mean two or three...OK, but 7 different kinds! It gets a little interesting when you throw Golden Grahams in with Fiber One. Gross! She doesn't seem to mind one bit though.

That is hilarious! I couldn't mix that many cereals and still eat it.
I loved her letter to Santa.
Your furniture is beautiful!

That is so funny. Maddie has a lot more options than Abigail.
Abigail did the same thing during our trip to Cairo. I would present her with the options and she would point at them and say "both", which meant all of them. She got quite addicted to chocolate cereal! :)

a girl after my own heart. I love cereal but I've never thought of combining them!!

Do you have two boxes of multi-grain cheerios there? Ha ha...just an observation. You really do have to print all these blogs out. She'll love seeing the fun day to day things you've put in there.

PS Fun to see you for 3 minutes yesterday!

PPS I may try to come down and go to Toy's R Us next week.

that is so funny! Does she eat the whole bowl?... does she eat it out of a bowl w/out milk like you too? :)

That reminds me of my two younger sisters who would eat cereal with orange juice or grape juice if we were out of milk... gross!!

Cindy said...

I only put a tiny bit of each one in, but yes she does eat the whole bowl and usually seconds too! However, she does eat it with milk on top, unlike her mother.

Hahaha I love that. That's probably better than standing in front of the pantry for 10 minutes like we do, waiting for Elizabeth to pick one. That's amazing that she'll eat it like that.

Meghan said...

That's great! Awesome that she'll eat them all mixed together. I love to eat things other than cereal for breakfast, but all Paige ever wants is Honey Nut Cheerios. Maybe I should give her more choices... :)

That is so cute. I love cereal, but I'm the only one in my family who does. My boys all think they need egg, pancakes ect... for breakfast nothing easy it drives me crazy.

Rebecca said...

That's so cute...and you're such a good mom to let her have it that way she wants it instead of saying "gross! just choose one!"

That is great! When we were younger my dad would talk us into wanting our cereal mixed like this, just so we would finish off the end of each cereal box and not leave little bits at the end of boxes. :)
