Waffle Wednesday, weird version

A month or so ago, Mom dug up the waffle iron after some 5+ years since its last use. It still worked just fine, and so our new Waffle Wednesday tradition began: Waffles for brunch, maybe some friends over to share them, and a general good time with good food for all. And then we got to this Waffle Wednesday: plenty of waffles (good ones, too), but not much eating.

It all started when Jared began throwing up, a lot. Knowing that we might have to cancel our company, Mom decided to whip up some waffles earlier than usual in case Dad wanted to grab one on his way out the door. When the waffles were served, Jared didn't want one, Amanda only ate a couple of bites, and Curtis decided to shred his. Lydia got in a few crumbs gumming one, and Dad did indeed grab one, but needless to say there were more than enough left over for Mom.

The plot thickened later in the morning when we found a probable cause for Amanda's aversion to food: She has her first loose tooth! She's been feeling left out as her classmates have been losing teeth, and so she is very excited and has spent most of the morning wiggling it. Any bets on whether it will still be in her mouth or not by the time school's out today?

Fun coincidence in tooth trivia: Amanda's loose tooth is the same one as Lydia's second tooth coming in right now. In other news, Lydia can sit alone for short periods of time.
