Supper by the Sea!

This is our "Supper by the Sea" made special by Mr. Crab himself. In the pasta is an Octopus (hot dog), a Squid (string cheese), a Starfish (pepperoni), and a Hermit Crab (boiled egg with pepperoni legs).

Kyler and Kambell have been not wanting to eat dinner, so I made it fun tonight. I wanted to make something cold to eat, to see if Kambell would eat it.

Kyler had his first "storytime" at the library today and 'A House for Hermit Crab' is the book he choose to check out from the library. He decided on the way to the library that he randomly wanted to check-out a book about crabs, and this is what we ended up with (along with a Dora book and a Spot book).

So while they were napping, I threw this together. Then when he woke up we re-read the story and I said, "wouldn't it be cool if Mr. Crab cooked us dinner tonight, so mommy doesn't have to cook." He loved it and we put the crab book into the fridge so that Mr. Crab could get to work. Several hours later we checked to see if supper was ready and this is what we found. Kyler was so impressed that he hopped down from the table, ran and opened the fridge and said "Thank you Meesta Cwab!" He did eat all of his food, and some of Kambell's too :) Guess that means I've got to get creative more often ;)
