Reid - 11/16/2015

Reid ate most of breakfast: kix cereal and mixed fruit.  For lunch he had three servings of ham sandwich, ate two servings of peas, and ate mandarin oranges.  So I asked my usual questions at breakfast;  "What'd you do this weekend?"  Coop said, "Nothing."  Ha ha!  He was basically copying Reid who'd just said, "I didn't do nothing!"  Cooper said, "I'm going to dino-land."  Where at?  "It's part of the city."  :)  He also reminded me at lunch after looking at the ham sandwich; "Remember; Reid can't eat cheese, but I can."  Thank you for the reminder Cooper.  And his next question;  "Is there any cheese in this sandwich?"  Nope.

Tate and Bode were both right there to greet Baby Hudson this morning!  So cute.  I loved it because it was the first time Bode asked if he could hold him too.  Tate, of course, is right there close by being the expert supervisor and offering a steady stream of advice!!  :)

I took this next picture when the boys were looking at the alphabet posters, finding "their letters" (that's their words) and talking about them.  They spot "their letters" everywhere there are words.

We did a toy, book, and puzzle exchange this weekend and Cooper found some dinosaur puzzles to play with and talk about.  He was telling Reid all about the dinosaurs and said, "I like dinosaurs cause they're green."  Reid said, "I like blue dinosaurs."  Cooper, of course, said, "There aren't any!"  Reid said, "I saw one!"  So I asked him "where?"  He was pointing down the road; "You have to drive up here, turn here, and over there."  :)

Little boys invariably use ANYTHING for their weapons.  I usually guide them into something different - depending on where that play is leading.  And it's a safe bet that it's into rowdiness!  Today it was the carrots in the food toys.  They are pretty long and made perfect swords!  :)  (And the Kabobs as well!!)
