Tonight for supper we had Plain Red Soup (tomato soup for the rest of the world) and grilled cheese sandwiches. *Here's the story behind "Plain Red Soup" - I am NOT a fan of tomatoes - I like ketchup, cocktail sauce, pasta sauces, etc., but I do NOT like tomatoes. I will pick them out of chunky chili or sauces, and do not eat them "fresh" out of the garden (yes, I have tried them with both salt/pepper and with sugar). I've never liked them, I don't know why. So I think that my Mom came up with "Plain Red Soup" in an effort to get me to eat it. It worked, and I like it, but still call it plain red soup. (Yes, Grandma, Alex is free to eat tomatoes - he actually LOVES them - he and Andy can have them!!) :)
So as we were getting supper ready, the sandwiches had just came off of the griddle. They were still pretty toasty, so Andy was cooling it off with his spatula. Alex decided to help "fan" it off.....it's hilarious!! :)
Once Alex had successfully cooled all of his food off, it was time to pray and then eat. WHAT A MESS!! He hasn't had much luck with the spoon, but he did manage to get some of it into his mouth. Unfortunately, his chin, shirt, elbow, fingers, ear, nose, eyebrow, and cheek were all in the way, so they all got soup on them, too. He did seem to enjoy it, though!
Then it was off to the bath. What a messy boy! Daddy and Alex had fun with his bath tonight - when I went in to see what all of the giggling was about, they BOTH had soaked heads! Andy was still in his work clothes, so it was quite funny! At least they had fun - my bathroom will dry eventually! :) Here he is "pre-cleaning" :)
