nuts

 When Carter is gone at school, Logan and Brady typically ask for a snack around 11 am...they have breakfast between 8-9 and then lunch is only at 2:30 or 3 pm, so it's a good snack time. And right before naptime.

Sometimes I let them pick a snack from "the green container", which is where the "non-healthy" snacks are. Mostly it's stuff from candy bags at previous birthday parties which take forever to get through when 3 of your sons get candy bags and when those candy bags are honkin' huge.

Most of the time though I tell them they have to pick a healthy snack first. A fruit, a granola bar, some trail mix {even though it has m&m's in it!}, a yoghurt, cheese, crackers, etc.

Today it was trail mix.

And this is their preferred method of eating it.
