Another day, another lunch.

 
So here we have another lunch for Aiden:
  • ham and cheese sandwich, cut into circles
  • Tostitos bite sized tortilla chips, the circle shaped ones
  • salsa, in a waterproof container
  • a banana muffin (homemade)
  • two cookies (homemade)
  • two soft pretzels
This is packed in the Sistema snack attack duo box.

 
 
 

Here is another one that I packed for Aiden:
  • Tortilla chips
  • Salsa in the Sistema to go dressing container
  • Raisins
  • apple slices
  • pretzels
  • pepperoni (his absolute favorite lunch meat)
  • turkey rolls




I'm still working on getting him to eat more vegetables, so I am hiding a lot in my salsa. It is chunky and full of onions, peppers, tomatoes, and cilantro. I often hide the veggies so my kids don't gripe.

ADHD, and keeping your sanity.

Our plight with having a child with ADHD started early. His personality and way of being started when he was just months old. Aiden was absolutely never capable of sitting still, and he liked certain things in a certain order or way. As a toddler, he was curious, and he was absolutely having his terrible twos as soon as he could walk.

In fact, if I wasn't his mother, I would think that I had just typed an incredible negative sentence. But, it is true. Aiden is just as great as he is difficult to deal with. He is never the first kid to ...

Back 2 School Lunch Packing and Reviews

So, it's July. I'm seeing a fall set-up in 90+ degree weather in most Florida chain stores. I can't even fathom the idea of a sweater or boot right now. I still have a sunburn from watering my thirsty lawn. However, this is far from what excites me about this time of year. It's the geekery involved in school supply shopping, and the excitement of having the boys back in school. Since as far back as I can recall, I have always LOVED the prep work of back to school. Not the actual going to school and mingling with mortals of a different kind than I, but just the good stuff, the pens and pencils, and the backpacks and the gadgets. Ah. Browsing the halls of an Office Depot still bring back that childish excitement. Now that both of my boys are going to school (James in Pre-k, and Aiden in Kindergarten) I get to do twice the school shopping (double whammy). FUN. So, I've browsed. I've done my homework and have searched for all the deals. I've read the reviews....
