Chow time!

I thought I should post something about the voracious appetites of Jake and Miles. That way I can remember, in case they decide to turn on me one day. Right now they are bottomless pits. Garbage disposals. I guess this is a little preview of what it will be like to live with two teenage boys. They are such big eaters and, lucky for me, they like the good stuff. Favorites include...bananas, strawberries, blueberries, kiwi, papaya, watermelon, nectarines, peaches, mangoes, cherries, applesauce, avocados, zucchini, squash, sweet potatoes, peas, broccoli (sometimes), carrots, scrambled eggs, tofu, turkey, turkey meatloaf, veggie burger, veggie 'meat'balls, pasta, smoothies, yogurt, cheese, milk (soy, please!), pancakes, graham crackers, goldfish, cheerios...they even sucked down some grilled orange roughy the other night. It's hard to keep up, but I can't complain. I also know that tomorrow they could decide that they only want bananas and graham crackers, so I'm counting my blessings for now. Here is a picture of dinner they other night and a couple of them chowing down! (And, yes, they do pass food back and forth now.)


Can't talk now...busy eating...

Jake: "Hey Miles, I don't want this bite...you interested?"
Miles: "Sure, I'll try it...hand it over."
Yummy!
Dinner of champions...for two growing boys! (That's a lot of food, right?!)
