Reid - 6/5/2015

Reid ate half of his malt-o-meal cereal and ate raisins for breakfast.  For lunch he ate ground beef, three servings of elbow noodles, mixed fruit (large serving), and three servings of apple pieces.  I've mentioned before, but today's lunch was a classic example of how different meal times are now with Reid here; basically no talking, just all business!  They were shoveling their food in and Cooper said, "That meat is good; it sure is yummy!"  :)

We read lots of stories, did some sign language (Reid is showing lots of interest in sign language), reviewed the shapes, and colored at Art Time.  The boys were swinging their blankets around and Reid started trying to swat Cooper with his blanket.  Cooper told him; "Good job!"  Uhhhh, no, let's not encourage him!!  :)  We've been singing a song that spells the kid's names.  Reid was singing it this morning; "eid, eid, eid."  Pretty cute.

I took the next two pictures of the boys outside this morning.  Cooper was trying all different kinds of antics on the teeter-totter and Reid finally got tired of saying, "No Cooper, no!"  And just decided to join him in the fun!

So this picture is pretty typical "boy play."  Always pushing the envelope a little bit, or a lot!  Cooper started jumping from one teeter-totter to the next one and he was nailing his landing!  Reid didn't quite nail the landing, but at least he didn't damage my toys!!  Ha!  (That was a joke.)
