1st Grade Bento #59 - Birthday Party Leftovers

I have so much to blog about and so little time. I still need to post my Vday crafts! And then we had all kinds of fun for Kylee's 7th Birthday. I will post soon! For now, you get another bento!

I was out of bread this morning, but had plenty of leftover hot dog buns (not sure how that happened since I bought the same amount of weiners and buns and all the weiners were gone, lol). SO...we have a PB&J Hot Dog

Cheese cubes

Strawberries (she received from her Granny for her birthday)

Leftover veggies from dinner last night that were "the best veggies ever" even though she has had them 100 times before this

and a Smore Pop leftover from her birthday party also.

1st Grade Bento #48 - Salad

The girl LOVES salad.  She ate salad all weekend and then made sure I bought the "ingredients" at the grocery store for her to take it in her lunch.  She complained about the ranch for some reason?  Maybe because she was eating restraunt ranch all weekend?  I don't know.  I only buy Hidden Valley Ranch and she eats it every Wednesday night on her pizza and never complains.  The lettuce looks a little sad in this photo, but it didn't in "real life."

1st Grade Bento #14 and some new boxes!

Kylee wanted another pizza bento.  

Pizza Sauce, Pepperonis, Mozzarella Cheese, Pineapple, Cookies, and Sandwich Round slices for crust.

My Mom picked up these new boxes for me at the Disney Store this weekend!

Here they are open.  I already had food in the Pooh one.

And I also want to tell you how excited I was last night when Kylee told me that when she has kids, she is going to pack them bentos also!  She said, "well only the girls. " Then she asked me if I was going to pack Clancy bentos when he went to real school.  I said probably some "boy" bentos.  She said, "yeh, thats what Im gonna do too!"  I love that girl!

Bubby's Dinner Bento and Workin Momma's Snack Bento

Last night we had leftover enchiladas and apparently I bought "medium" sauce instead of "mild" sauce, so I had to come up with an alternative dinner for Bubby.  I finally broke out my Dr Sears Nibble Tray and I love it!!  The photos are a little blurry because I couldn't locate my card for my camera last night and he was screaming for food, so I had to take a quick shot!

Peanut Butter, Yogurt, and Nutella for dipping, Graham Crackers, Grapes, Strawberries, Cojack Cheese cubes, Peas, and Cheese Quesadillas.

And here is my snack bento for today packed in my new box from the Target $1 bin:

Grapes, Strawberries, and Yogurt for dipping!

What's For Lunch Wednesday!

I SO need to get my lake blurb on here!  I didnt even make a bento for today.  Its been rough getting back in the swing of things!  And I was only actually off work for 3 days!  I have been busy setting up a Family Share site for our family to put pics and events on.  I used Shutterfly.  I love their design and all of the capabilities!  Only complaint, the picture uploading is TERRIBLY slow :(.  Snapfish is SO much faster, but not near as neat.  I use Snapfish to store and share all of my pics.  Anyways.  So here is my BFF's work bento for today.  She was nice enough to let me take a pic and post it. (She learned her mad bento skillz from me anyways ;))

Her's looked super yummy!  Blackberries and Strawberries, Tomato slices, Green Grapes, and Bologna and Mayo on Whole Wheat!

Dinner Bentos

We're headed to the lake for 4 days in the morning, so we needed a quick dinner tonite that didn't involve much cleanup!

Bubby had a Whole Wheat Sandwich Round with Peanut Butter, Chester's PuffCorn, Cojack cheese cubes, and a couple Strawberries.  (The new sandwich rounds were a big hit!! even with the Hubs!!)

Freddi had Ham and Mustard Circlewiches, with Cojack Cheese Flowers, Chesters PuffCorn, and Strawberries

Huggies Jean Diapers (and a popsicle!)

Well, I gave Huggies another shot.  I love the look of the New Huggies Jean Diapers!!  Not that many people besides us at home usually ever see my Lil Man's diaper, but hey, they're cute!  I am a major Pampers girl.  I used them with Freddi as a baby and it is all I have used for Bubby.  But, I decided I'd try them out.  (And by 'try them out', I did my usual stock up option and bought 2 cases ;) Cody hates it when I do that.)  Anyways.  He has been wearing them for a couple of weeks now.  They aren't bad and Bubby hasn't minded them, but I think I'll stick with Pampers.  Even Cody commented on how much softer our Pampers are.  But arent they just adorable?!?!!

What's For Lunch, Wednesday!

I linked up again this week for "What's For Lunch, Wednesday!"

I didn't make a Bento today because Freddi is enjoying buying her own lunch from the concession stand at basketball camp this week.  It is only 4 hours, but they have a concession stand, and she thinks she is so "big" getting to "pick" what she wants.  We told her she could get ONE thing.  So we asked her what she got yesterday and she said she had to get TWO things because they had TWO breaks.  Um, No.  No you dont.  I don't think you need to eat nachos twice in 4 hours.  Im sure she only ate 3 out of each bowl of them anyways.  So we made sure that she knew today that she could get ONE snack TOTAL for the entire 4 hours.  I wanted to just make her a snack bento, but she is loving the "adventure"! lol  Anyways.  I picked her last day of school bento to link up.  Check them all out here!
