What do they have for breakfast:
I think my daugther is a little bit like her mum and dad: we are not really hungry in the morning, when we wake up.
My first thought was to write “My daughter is a little pain the ass” :) – because in fact, she is. First thing she asks in the morning (and at night, and every time she sees somebody drink something) is water with bubbles, in her baby bottle. She never drinks milk. It started with breastfeeding, which she didn’t enjoy, and lasts until today: no milk for her (except at school, where she behaves like an angel and does everything she is supposed to do, including drinking and eating all things she doesn’t touch at home).
So then and to make up for the missing milk, she eats yogurt. Give her a strawberry one and she will ask for vanilla, and give her vanilla and she will ask for coconut. Coconut is her favorite.
She also accepts cookies, slices of cheese (one brand only) and little toasts with butter and honey. Sometimes. :)
What do you (and daddy) have for breakfast:
Mum and dad have coffee and milk for breakfast, something like cafe latte or cappuccino (with lots of foam).
We never have breakfast together. Never ever. We never sit at the table. During workdays, i have my coffee standing in the kitchen before my daughter wakes up. She will then have her breakfast watching some tv before she goes to kindergarten. It is the only way to keep her quiet in the mornings. (She is no tv addict, but some cartoons in the morning work for her to start her day). She also likes to have morning picnics on the living room floor.
During weekends, we sit around the sofa table, or walk around the house. Everybody in our house has his/her own rhythm in the morning, and we accept that. We will eat lunch or dinner together, later.
Mum likes to have cheese/ham toast during weekends, made from “country-bread”, and during weekdays, no food at all. Dad has coffee and smokes a cigarette (should not write that, but it’s true and he won’t smoke much for the rest of the day).
We also have a cat, that likes to eat cat biscuits and ham for breakfast.
