*We have really grown to love Pat and Oscars. It's a perfect restaurant for families with its fast service and casual and noise friendly atmosphere. We also like that it's located right by a duck pond, making our dinner out more of a longer outing. The biggest reason we like it is the price. We've fine tuned our order so that Chris and I splitting a meal and the kids splitting a kids' meal (both meals are HUGE!) is pretty perfect. And we are out of there for right under $15!




*I love this pic :)


*I posted a long time ago about scavenger hunts. I take pictures of Cam's little toys, download them, then he has look at the computer and go find each one. Today we initiated Kendall into the hunt and Cam loved ushering her around. I make it even more fun by hiding a chocolate chip with various characters. :)


*Cam has developed a yucky habit of picking his nose, then sliding that finger right into his mouth. 9 out of 10 times there isn't even anything retrieved from said nose, but he just automatically puts that finger in his mouth. Yuck. I read online about the strategy of giving him a small bowl of M&M's at the beginning of the day. Every time I catch him doing it, I take one away (right in front of him). I want to find a non-melty candy, however, since I want to be able to take the jar with me when we go out.

*Everyday Cam reports to me who was naughty in his class. Discipline involves unhappy/firm sounding teachers, which is ALWAYS taken notice of by Cam. Today the first thing he told me was that he was put down to the red (naughty) square because he was being silly with a classmate and not doing his work. While I talked to him about my disappointment, secretly I was thinking, "Awesome! He was interacting!!" :)

*Here you go Susan and mom, here is my pirate cake: :)



*I love chocolate, cinnamon, and a few other Goldfish flavors. I hate the regular cheddar kind. They taste like wannabe Cheez-Its.
