Green Smoothie Girls...

Our girls are good eaters, but Beks has systematically turned down anything green I try to feed her--with the exception of peas. No matter how much she wants to live on bread alone, I just think we need to add a little variety. So, I have been trying to get the girls into drinking smoothies daily with Mommy. Mommy is up to a quart a day, but the girls haven't been too interested...until today. Today, I added more fruit & dollop of honey & let's just say that it was a smashing success.

Let's get the smoothie drinking form down from watching big sister...

Synchronized. Love the baby belly...

Beks got a shape sorter today from one of her friends & put it to use as a little stool. See, she's a genius. So advanced.

More to come on the big 1st birthday...we're waiting until Daddy can join us for the festivities. Abby was devistated! A birthday with no cake or ICE CREAM. We are cruel, cruel parents.

Until next time,

Too cute!! Are you going to send the pictures to the Green Smoothie lady? She'd love them. Tell the girls Grandma had her green smoothie this morning, too. I don't have a neat cup w/straw like they do. I'm jealous!! Sounds like you'll have days of birthday fun!! :)

Can you please post the recipe in your "recipe section" post? (Whatever happened to those, BTW??) Sounds like a great idea for my guys, one of whom informs me on a daily basis, "I don't like vegetables, Mommy. ANY vegetables!!"
