Sasketti

Preston is by far my pickiest eater..my most stubborn eater..or maybe to term it better my most annoying eater. :) Nearly every meal is a battle, whiny, deals being made, foods being renamed (whilst hushing Jackson not to correct us), and him being forced to at least try it and then if he wants spit it out.

However, spaghetti (ahem..I mean "sasketti") is by far Preston's favorite. And, you know only the one with the "straws." Not the squares. (In other words, only spaghetti noodles not ravioli that I try to pass off chopped up as spaghetti.) He always licks his bowl no matter where we are..Olive Garden, Carrabbas, or at home.

Typically he has already had his bath if we are at home, but often needs a whole new pair of pajamas in addition to what ends up being nearly a whole second bath.

We've videotaped this and snapped lots of blackmail pictures for later in life. :) This trend with sasketti actually started when he was one year old. We have lots of pictures like these..although these are most recent. ;) He is quite the character, don't you think?

As a side note, I made fried squash tonight..and told him it was okra. (He LOVES fried okra!) He was unsure but tried it and nearly ate the whole batch! Put it this way Paul only had one piece! After he had practically licked the serving bowl (he ended up eating out of it instead of putting it on his plate) and asked for more..I said, "Preston, guess what? You just ate SQUASH!" He said, "Huh?" I said, "Yep, that is NOT okra. It was squash." He looked amazed and said, "I WUV squash! Do you have me anymore okra..I mean squash??"

Looks like a trip to Publix is in order. :))
