See told you there was not a lot of effort in these ones. 'Mommy Fail'

I will say they all are everything in their lunches though.

Nothing really exciting about this lunch today, but still having fun making them. I bet I will not be saying this for long. How do you all feel about school?

School Lunch Box Day 1

So with my girls in school and me off I am taking over lunch meals for them. Daddy did an amazing job last year while I was pregnant and giving me extra sleep in the morning since I didn't sleep well at night but, well he's daddy and these are his girls, and they got WHATEVER they wanted in their lunches. Boy oh boy were they spoiled.

My goal this year is to introduce new foods, mix things up, and to make it fun.

Today for my older two they got:

   Half a bagel with cream cheese and jelly
   Yogurt
   Fish pretzels
   Strawberries
   Carrots
   Cucumber sticks
   Raisins
   Juice box
   Water bottle
   and of course a bear paw for dessert

My young one got:
   Ham
   Cheese cubes
   Swiss crackers
   Fish pretzels
   Yogurt
   Apple chunks
   Grapes
   Juice
   Water bottle
   and a bear paw for dessert too

Over all I think they are a good size lunch. Maybe a little more then some would pack, but I'd rather them come home with food then come home starving. Starving belly equals less concentration in the classroom.
