Dinner

WHERE do you eat dinner?

We eat in the living room in front of the TV Embarrassed. Hopefully since Carly is starting solids we'll all eat at the kitchen table. That means we need to keep all the crap off of it though, lol. 

Re: Dinner

  • Same for us.  We are trying to be better about eating in the kitchen but I have to admit our default is on the couch.  I hate that because I didn't grow up that way.  I guess we're just lazy.  I have no excuse - our table is even clean....

    PCOS and Endo

    Ovarian drilling and endo removed 1/3/12
    BFP - 3/27/12
    Beta's 11, 14, 57, 637, 2800
    Sono showed no baby and teeny tiny sac. Waiting to M/C naturally.

  • We used to be 50/50 eating at the table or coffee table, but for the past year we've made an effort to eat exclusively at the table for all meals. We don't want Margot to get in the habit of eating wherever. Although, DH eats his morning oatmeal in front of the tv, but oh well. Even when it's just me, Margot goes in her seat and joins me at the table - it's a lot more fun with company :)

  • I don't technically have a table in my apartment...so we eat at a kiddie table in the living room. Sometimes, we just eat on the floor on a blanket or something, but I'm trying to get better with eating at an actual table since JJ's getting older. He eats exclusively at a kiddie table at daycare, so we try to do the same at home.

  • We eat at the table.  I want Will to grow up with us eating together as a family.  Even when he was too small for the high chair, we would put his bouncy seat on the table, so he could be there with us.

  • we always eat at the table except for "special occasions" like when something we want to watch is on tv and we got food to eat while we watch (mostly football).

    We are too messy not to eat at the table! 

  • We don't really have a dining room; it's more of a nook. There is only space for 2 chairs. When it's just 2 of us, if Nate is sleeping or Rodgers is at work, we will eat at the table about half the time. If all of us are here or we have company, we have to eat in the living room. Nate eats lunch and dinner earlier than Rodgers and me, so we're rarely all eating at the same time.

  • Coffee table.  Unless we have company specifically for dinner or something (it's rare), and then we eat at the table.  Our table is sadly a dumping ground for stuff most of the time.
  • When it was just DH & I, we ate typically in front of the TV.  Now we are changing to the table.  I definitely want to have the dinner at the table and TV off when we have dinner as a family especially since our TV is on most of the day.

  • We eat at the kitchen table and put Little D in his little booster seat. In our old house, we would eat in the living room in front the table. In this house, we can see the tv from the kitchen, but it's weird because we have it on just for sound while we're eating.

  • Since we both eat alone almost every night I eat at the coffee table when I make dinner and then he usually sits in his chair and eats in his lap when he comes home from work.
  • I have been trying to eat at our table more. But in the living room is where we eat a lot.

    Since A's head is more solid and less bouncy now, we'll put her on the bumbo at the table with us, unless she is sleeping.
