Daddy’s breakfast {The Ordinary Moments} #21
This week is a short little ordinary moments post that peeks at a tiny piece of our weekday mornings….Daddy’s breakfast.
We are all up between half 5 and 6 every day (dictated by Arthur not us!!). First thing in the morning Arthur drinks some water and then he has his bottle of milk.
During the week Mark is out the house by 7am to go to work, so he has his breakfast before Arthur and I have ours. Ever since he was small Arthur has realised that this is an opportunity to get an early snack (actually this is how Arthur got his first ever taste of food stealing some of Mark’s porridge!). He knows he can have some of Daddy’s breakfast and will do all the kissing up required to do so. That or he will kick off until he gets some, but either way he gets some!!
I love watching these two together, in this little routine in the mornings! Arthur always looks so pleased with himself every time he gets a mouthful of whatever happens to be Daddy’s breakfast that morning! It’s like a little victory he chalks up every day! The annoying thing is that he really will eat whatever it is but then if I serve him it for his own breakfast he will sometimes turn his nose up at it, cheeky monkey!!
Linking up up with the lovely Katie for the ordinary moments

Such sweet photos, O is a breakfast stealer too, and it has to be Daddy’s. My husband now has to make an extra boiled egg whenever he has them for breakfast because O will eat a full one to himself and if he spies Daddy is having one he had to get in on the action! x

Such a sweet post & photos. What is it with kids ignoring their own food and wanting others? Haha. Annabelle does exactly the same thing, and then once everyone elses has been cleared, she goes back to eating her own, lol. Wee rascals. x

Yummy yum! How cute! This is how my littlest boy used to enjoy his breakfast, stealing it from my bowl. I did once hear that this was the best way to teach good eating habits – not necessarily eating from each others bowls mind you, but simply sharing together and showing your enjoyment of how good it tastes – yumm!

Cutie isn’t he … baby I mean!! ha ha. I love these little routines they get themselves into x
Love this post! My eldest does the same thing and breakfast with daddy each morning is now a regular occurrence and much loved quality time for them both before Isaacs and I surface 🙂
We have a lil breakfast snatcher in our house too… She is always fed first, and eats a massive bowl of Weetabix, but can always find some space for whatever we are having 🙂 Babies, so funny, always want what their parents have 🙂

A lovely story and pictures, this sounds very familiar for some reason everything looks better when it’s on someone else’s plate. Thank you for linking up to #magicmoments

So cute! We all have breakfast together during the week, but at the weekend it’s a bit more disorganised so there might be people eating at different times. It always astonishes me that M finds room for more food in his tummy every single time anyone breaks any out! Hollow legs, these kids have, I swear.

I love how quirky kids are sometimes, it’s great that he and his dad share this bonding moment everyday though. Popping in from Magic Moments.

I so know about those early starts. H is getting a bit later now thankfully (he is 7) and 6.30 is more the waking up time.

Sooooooooooooo cute in just his nappy first thing in the morning. And it does sound so ordinary but its so special isn’t it?:) One day it’ll be one of the stories to tell A about how he used to nick Daddy’s brekkie 😀

Firstly, I’m glad to hear that toddlers still wake at 5.30am in really beautiful places, and not just here 😉 Secondly- what a cutie! There’s always something irresistible about other people’s food, and I guess small people are no exception- F&S are always scrounging from us, even if they’ve just eaten themselves! x

Hello there, this is fab, and we also have a food pincher-especially when it comes to mashed potato! xx #magicmoments
What a lovely post!! I know what you mean, my hubby and makes pancakes for breakfast with our daughters every Saturday morning (giving me a chance to sleep in) but I always creep down stairs to watch them. #magicmoments
Food always tastes better when it isn’t yours! I stand by that. He is so adorable in his little nappy! Cute!

Ah such a cute post and funnily enough the same thing happens here. Both my girls will have their breakfast and then Daddy gets his, by which time the girls have finished theirs and will have a little bit of his. Sometimes mine too. 😉 x

Oh that made me giggle, my girls are breakfast stealers too, to the extent that H makes extra because he knows he’s going to lose it!!
