So Cutler has decided he is old enough to do EVERYTHING by himself. Most of the time I think it's great but when it comes to ransacking the fridge and cupboards for food that ends up not getting eaten, it is NOT the greatest. So today when he decided he was going to make toast right after he had not finished breakfast I told him he could do it as long as he ate it all gone. Well he put the bread in the toaster until it was toasted to his liking and then slathered it with butter. I set him at the counter and told him he didn't get anything else to eat until it was gone. He took one bite and said he was done. So I sat him back at the counter and told him we were done wasting food and that he wouldn't get to play or do anything else until it was gone. Well, that morning he missed out on talking to grandma, watching Max & Ruby and the mid morning yogurt snack. While Cutler was unhappy about missing each of these events I think Boston was even more upset. Bossy felt so bad that Cutler was missing out on everything that he finally said he'd eat the toast for Cutler. I wish I would have taken a picture of Boston's face as he took tiny bite after tiny bite of the way-over-buttered, stale toast, but it's safe to say he was not enjoying it. He was, however, thrilled when he finally finished it, and Cutler could now play Bayblades with us.
