sneaking around

Sneaking around to drink my banana milk.

That's what life is like with a toddler.  I am actually sneaking around with my lil yellow box of banana milk and sucking it down as fast as possible before his little baby nose can tell what's going on.  I'm sneaking around with it because it's my guilty pleasure.  And it's made of all kinds of crap and artificial colors and sugars that I don't want my baby to ingest.  

It's not just banana milk.  It's a sip of coke.  It's Doritos.  It's cookies.  It's juice.  It's chocolate!  It's super spicy food.  It's popcorn.  It's nuts!  It's ramen.  ...   My husband and I do a dance once the Lentil is out for the night (sleeping his 10-12 hour shift), and we start breaking out the wine, the beer, the chips, and sometimes we even boil a thing of instant ramen.

Who would have thought that this is what life with children is like?

It is for us.
