Yesterday, we took the kids to Nothing but Noodles to take advantage of their Kids eat free Monday. Maddie was eating her noodles with gusto, as if she had never tasted anything as exquisite as curly noodles with cheese and butter. Asher was just picking at his noodles because we were sitting outside and he was too distracted by passing trucks. In an effort to shove more food into him I offered him a forkful of rice off of my plate. Out of nowhere, he got this demonic look on his face and shouted "I'm Cookie Monster!" and started shoving fistfuls of rice into his mouth with rice flying all around him. He even grabbed the ceramic plate and started chomping on it complete with sound effects. I didn't get to finish my rice and I feel bad for the poor guy who had to clean up after us, but at the time Paul and I were both laughing too hard to stop him. It's so fun to watch his imagination develop.

You should use photo shop to put Asher's face on that picture! I'm so excited to see the kids! Love, MOM
oh... at least rice doesn't stick like cheesey, buttery, noodles would have.
I haven't seen Sesame street in over a decade, but I have heard from friends that cookie monster has expanded his diet to include more than cookies. He now eats healthy food and sings that cookies are a "sometimes" food. Is this actually true? Is Sesame Street politically correct now, too?
Sheesh...
Maybe they should change his name to rice monster and Asher could audition for the role.
ha ha haaaa!! that's too funny!
and i can't believe your baby is 1! she's such a doll.
HAHAHAHA! Boy, do I wish you had your video camera so we could have seen it! That sounds too hilarious, your have one cute little boy!
Too funny! Yeah, I had heard that he is no longer called the "cookie monster". Sounds like a good time. Where is that restaurant located?
Okay, if that is true about the Cookie Monster that is the saddest thing I've ever heard. Pretty soon he'll have to be called the Veggie and Tofu Monster. So sad.
What a funny story. I love that he even "chomped" on the plate. Nothing But Noodles is one of our favorite places to eat.
