< cereal for breakfast >

Since the blizzard (I mean, the 3 snowflakes) came and canceled school for today, I was able to eat breakfast with Jacob. Normally, I load his lunchbox up for school and he shares breakfast with his teachers and friends at school. I realized that I haven't tried to get Jacob to eat cereal the 'right' way lately. We used to give him dry cereal in a bowl, along with a cup of vanilla Silk... b/c that's all he could do. He had trouble with motor skills and controlling the spoon with all that sloshy milk inside used to be difficult and frustrating.

So this morning I hooked him up with some fruity Cheerios, some vanilla Silk, and a super cool cereal bowl with a straw! I think the straw on the bowl made this seem fun for him... b/c he did a great job and ate/drank almost the entire thing. Another little milestone that shows just how much improvement he's made in the past 3 years.

So proud of you, little man...
