Waffle Boy

So I've mentioned that Ben likes waffles. I haven't said that it's a rather unhealthy relationship. I will not admit to how many waffles this child has eaten in a day, because it would reflect poorly on my parenting...

The other day, Ben decided to sit on Josh's chair with him for breakfast. Josh made himself a very syrupy, sugary waffle (oh, my children and their sugar intake...) and turned away for a minute. When he looked back at his waffle, he found Ben sticking his fingers into the little waffle holes filled with syrup, licking off his fingers, and going back for more.

    Sarah shares the same love of waffles...or more correctly, syrup. Some days its just about getting her to eat something ... ANYTHING!

    I think that waffles are great. My kids are addicted to bacon, with syrup on top. 1 lb. of bacon does not go very far anymore...so gross!

    Have you let the boy try buttermilk syrup...or as we call it "Heavenly Syrup"??? I think you are a wonderful mother, and waffles are a great breakfast! I'm learning that I don't even object to sugar cereal anymore. If they eat, do it quickly, and without complaints in the morning then I'm good!

    We have a waffle boy at our house too. Austin will eat them anyway he can. I have given up on makeing them, because he wants so many. He will eat them morning noon and night, if I let him. He will even eat them FROZEN (gross).

    Ben and I share a love for waffles. Seriously - I love anything that goes with syrup: pancakes, waffles, french toast, german pancackes. I love it all. I love how Ben poked his fingers in the the waffles squares filled with syrup. He's a cutie :)
