Bento Box Thursday

I can't believe it's Thursday again!

Not much in the way of fancy today. I did make some chicken salad: diced chicken, diced celery, cut grapes and apples, and dressing (raspberry yobaby yogurt, miracle whip and a little lemon to preserve the apples). I'm not sure if the girls will eat it, but I keep giving them things hoping they'll try it.


Chicken salad and veggies for our boxes. I also have almond butter dip for the girls' veggies for tomorrow.


Mostly basics today in Maisie's: Almond butter and jelly heart sandwiches, carrots, cucumbers, celery and cream cheese dip.


Maisie's bento boxes: large one for lunch, the stackables have snacks.



Chicken Salad for one snack, string cheese and apples for the other.



Last week, Maisie came home with almost two full bottles of water. I asked her if she drank any water and she said she wasn't thirsty :-( I told her she has to at least finish off one bottle (they are child sized). I get the hunch she's drinking out of the water fountain--which normally I don't have large objections, but with the baby coming I want to try and stay as disease free as possible for a few months.

It's tiring fixing all of the lunches, but on Friday I'm so grateful I did it. Last week, I got soo much done on Friday because I didn't have to stop and make lunch and snacks were also prepared. I need to spend time with Dani working on letters tomorrow, so I need all the time I can get.

Not to mention, I probably should pack my hospital bag at some point ;) LOL
