Day #3238 (Sat., Nov. 17, 2018) – TJ’s Turkey

2018-11-17 - TJ's TurkeyTake a look at our Thanksgiving Day Turkey (see photo to the left). We got a bigger one this year as we can always freeze the leftovers.

Katie did homework for quite a bit this morning. She didn’t seem to complain or have a problem with it. I bet my wife told her that she couldn’t play with the computer til she had it done.

My wife got tired early this morning and went off to bed so I tended to Katie and Bobby. The key to getting Bobby to go to bed for his nap is to feed him a LOT of yogurt before you even make the move to the bedroom. By the time you get there, if his tummy is really full, he will be out after only a short time of playing with toys in his bed.

Bobby was a force of nature this evening. Nothing seemed to please him and he was very loud. My wife thinks that the problem is that he didn’t eat after his nap. He refused food…so what can you do? Hold him down and force feed him? I miss the days of the baby food for this reason. You just need to sit him down and put a good YouTube video on the television set. Into the mouth and down it goes, and he is fed. With solid food it takes him longer to chew it and of course there is always the problem of getting him to even put it into his mouth.
