Now for the post...hehe...
Last night I had five kiddos all by myself at my friend Cher's house. I had her two, Spitfire and Destructo, a.k.a. Cadence and Christian, who are 5 and 2. My friend Karon's little boy, Mark David, and my two the Boy Wonder and the Princess, a.k.a. Ben and Emily. Cher picked mine up from school to play for awhile before I got there and I picked up Mark David so his parents could have a nice anniversary dinner. The kiddos played and then we ate dinner. After dinner Cher snuck out to go see a friend for a couple of hours and I set up our dessert/snack. I have to say it was a BIG hit as you will see in the pictures! I never could have imagined it would go over so well. I am putting fruit on skewers more often. They ate way more fruit than marshmallows. I was amazed!
Cher had cautioned me to not give Destructo a skewer just some fruit. But I decided to let him try it, and he did GREAT! he loved putting the blueberries on and then pulling them off and eating them. He has great fine motor skills. And he didn't even poke anyone or try having a sword fight!

Yummy...I can't wait to eat this one.
Look at mine, mommy!

FINALLY, we get to eat!

YUMMMY!
YUMMY! Mommy this is the best idea you have ever had!*beaming mommy*
Look at the boy wonder chow down...and Destructo was reaching for another blueberry to put on his skewer!
Mommy, that blueberry was a little sour...
Can I make another one?
