Reid - 8/18/2015

Reid ate three servings of waffle and ate pears for breakfast.  For lunch he didn't try his tuna and crackers (I'd thought he'd ate them the last time we had this meal), ate most of sweet potatoes, and ate two servings of mandarin oranges.  So at lunch we had Cooper eating Reid's food -which is a switch from the usual!  (And Reid was more than happy to give Cooper both of his tuna and cracker sandwiches!)  Ha!

Reid and Cooper built this block barricade you see in the picture.  There were a couple of holes in it and they are sticking the small stuffed animals through the holes.  Then they were racing around the barricade and pushing the animals back through the holes.

Cooper was standing on his head (he's been doing that ALL the time lately - especially on the couch) and showing Reid how to do it.  Reid is closely watching, but primarily just waiting for Cooper to move aside!!  Ha!

After Cooper moved Reid simply laid on his back in front of the igloo and propped his feet up on the igloo.  He said, "I did it Gary."  :)  Nice work Reid!  That's a much more relaxed approach to standing on your head!  :)

When we went outside Cooper was warning Elliott to stay away from the apples that fall off the neighbor's tree.  Cooper is deathly afraid of bugs and bees and he said, "Watch out for apples Elliott!" (I told Cooper early in the summer to watch for bees around the apples.)  Reid, on the other hand, has decided (along with Cooper's help) that it's his job to pitch the apples back over the fence.  So Reid said, "Reid do those; throw like baseball!!"  Ha!  And he did!  When he was done he came back and reported in to Cooper; "Did it Coop!!"  :)
