It&#8217;s getting close to<br \/>\n    3:00pm and I suspect they won&#8217;t be here by then. We started the<br \/>\n    day with blueberry pancakes. Yum! I thought I was being so nice<br \/>\n    and making everyone a treat, instead 1\/2 ended up under cooked,<br \/>\n    the shapes I tried to make failed miserably and it took awhile<br \/>\n    to talk Lex in to even trying them. He flat out refused until<br \/>\n    he realized that Jack, from one of his Eric Carle books, liked<br \/>\n    pancakes. Then, and only then, was he willing to give them a<br \/>\n    try. Not surprisingly he loved them! He even had more for lunch<br \/>\n    and now, not surprisingly, won&#8217;t take a nap!! We have to go run<br \/>\n    an errand in a few minutes so hopefully he&#8217;ll get a little car<br \/>\n    nap in.
