How do you dine?
When I look back at my childhood memories I remember that as a family we ate dinner. What I mean is that we 9 times out of 10 would all sit down at the dinning room table and eat together. I know this must sound completely taboo. I should also say that my parents have also been married 25+ years and that is also not really heard of now-a-days.
I have two reasons that I am randomly talking about my dining plans.
#1- Our family of 3 does NOT sit down and eat a meal together. Well let me take that back we may sit down(all together) once a week to eat. I feel that this is wrong and that I should change this habit. You know that commercial on tv that says a family that dines together will have kids that stay out of trouble. I feel that to a point this is very true. I think that if you have at least one meal together with no distractions that provides an outlet for conversation and dream sharing.
DH's family did not have meals together often at all. Hubby's dad works off shore and mom worked long hours so I would say the only time they dined together was on the weekends or holidays. This makes me sad but he is not warped because of it either.
Just a little food for thought? Do you dine at your kitchen tables?
#2- My second reason for the random post is that I want to inform you that I will be doing another giveaway with CSN Stores. I am very excited! CSN Stores has 200+ stores with everything imaginable.
My mother-in-law has a dining room and a breakfast nook. I think that is amazing. You must think I am a nerd but I have never had a breakfast nook! When I think of my breakfast nook this is what I think about!

Happy 22nd Month Birthday!
Sweet Potato!
Mommy and Daddy want to wish you a Happy 22 Month Birthday baby! We love you so much!
I still remember seeing you for the first time and all I wanted to do was kiss your face and give you a hug. While you were in Mommy's belly you madeit a point to try and break my ribs. I guess there was not enough room in there. I do miss feeling your little kicks and tumbles. I miss having you with me everywhere.
Now you are a big boy doing beautifully at day-care.You have tons of friends that run to see you every morning giving you hugsand kisses (causing sickness but hey!)
This month we think you found your terrible two belt and have strapped iton super tight. I still can't believe it each time I see you roll your eyesor hear you sigh. I am sorry you have a rough life lol! Where did my innocent little boy go? Although you have established a little of your own dominance in the house each day without fail you are cuddling with Mommy on the couch. It's as if a little timer goes off in your head at 6:30 p.m. and all play stops and you are searching for my lap. I LOVE it!
We are going to be starting or at least a little more actively doing some cooking together. I want you to be involved in what we do and you love to help. You are pro at putting clothes in the dryer.
When we ask you what the doggy says you say "ruff ruff", cow- "MOOOO",bird-"feet" "feet." The last one is my favorite! Daddy and I want to say that we love you and thank you for all the joy and laughter you bring to our lives.
