Creatures of Habit

I have been noticing a bit of a trend going on in our house. Apparently, certain occasions call for certain rituals. Two occasions in particular. First we have Sunday afternoons. In Brandon's house growing up, Sunday afternoons were for naps; a custom Brandon would very much like to continue in our house. While we have yet to embrace it whole heartily, there is a ritual, a tradition of sorts, that is of utmost importance to Kami. It would seem that Sundays are for nachos. Every Sunday when I ask what we want to eat when we get home from church Kami always replies nachos. In fact, on a couple occasions I suggested something else, even made something else. Kami exclaimed both times "No mom, I'm not going to eat that. Sunday is nachos!"

Cutest thing, a couple Sundays ago, before we got out of the truck, Brandon asked the kids what we were going to eat. Cooper looked sheepishly at Brandon and whispered as quite as he could "dog dogs". He wanted hot dogs. Apparently he was nervous about what Kami would think. It was so cute, like it was some special secret. Cute kid.

Tonight I learned of another ritual/tradition I was unaware of. Kami came up to me and said, "Mommy we need to make hooding (pudding)" I must have looked at her a little quizzically because she asked "Is tonight family hoe leaving (family home evening)?" "Then we need to make hooding!" I guess we've had pudding for fhe treat on a pretty regular basis. She must think it is a necessity. Silly girl.

....We do really like pudding....
