The Breakfast Club

When the boys rise each morning promptly at 6:00 a.m., I serve them each a warm 8 oz cup of milk. Then at 8:00 am, they have breakfast. On weekends, Sandy prepares waffles, pancakes or French toast, which we enjoy downstairs in the dining room as we do with all our other prepared meals. The boys will use their high chairs. During the week, breakfast is served upstairs. The boys eat cereal, bananas and yogurt at their desks so they can watch the Disney Channel. These are training exercises. At first the toddlers would not sit still, preferring to take a handful of food and play around the room. However over time these little boys have begun to stay seated and finish their breakfast before playing. Once they grasp this concept, we’ll try seating them at the table downstairs.
