Hungry Monkey

Last night we ate dinner at Gigi’s. My Tia (Jeanette) made red beans and rice with chicken, coleslaw, and deer sausage sliced and cooked with celery, carrots and onions. It was soooo yummy! They set aside a small plate for monks with buttered pasta, red beans and chicken. You should have seen my boy when we set the plate on the highchair. The pasta was big macaroni noodles and he ate them by the handfuls until they were all gone. Then he went to the beans and shoved them all in his mouth, choking once and having to get a drink but then continuing to eat. He ate a few pieces of chicken but wanted the red beans and rice and Tia thought it might be too spicy for him but he liked it a lot. He did keep pointing at my deer sausage but I did not know if he would like it. He ate several pieces and really enjoyed them. He then just had to try some coleslaw. He loved it. He ate what was left on my plate and I had to get him another serving. That sweet tummy was full. We always joke, hey it would be nice if someone fed him once in a while because he will eat sometimes like he is just starving. Too crazy. Monks also loves the dishwasher and “helped” Tia load it. He loves to unscrew the cap to the rinse aid stuff and put it back on. We played on the floor and he loves loves loves to have you crawl after him like you are going to get him. He runs from you squealing and laughs so hard.
