Day 26 - Hungry Boy

So this little child of mine must be having a growth spurt.  He has been eating like a horse!  Normally it is back and forth.  Chow down, then pick at food and eat like a bird.  But for the last several days, he has been chowing!

Tonight we went to Johnny Carinos (not sure they call it Johnny anymore, maybe it is just Carinos).  On the way there, he kept telling us, I'm not hungry, I don't want to eat.  Mark said...it is probably true.  He had cookies, goldfish crackers, and apples after school.  Well, we got to Carinos and let me tell you.  He ate bread as soon as it hit the table.  Then he said he wanted a pizza.  The boy ate Half of it!  HALF!

And see the size of that plate.  That is a pretty big pizza for a little boy.  Shoot it is pretty big for a big boy.  Of course he doesn't like the pizza bones (crust).  He leaves that.  Another thing is he has GOT to be the slowest eater on the planet!  Mark and I will eat and then have to sit there for another 20 min waiting on him.  Most of the time at home, we try to wait on him but we end up leaving him at the table to finish by himself.  He is SO slow.  I bet the teachers at school are ready to just throttle him!  Probably explains why he is hungry when he gets home.  He didn't get to finish.
