Reid - 3/7/2016

Reid ate several bites of kix cereal and three servings of mixed fruit for breakfast.  For lunch he ate two servings of ham sandwich, ate half of peas, and three servings of mandarin oranges.  Cooper provided some usual quotes at meal-times:  "After Hudson gets back from his trip it's going to be Valentines Day!"  :)  Reid asked Cooper, "How far is your Farm?"  Cooper said (with his arm stretched high in the air), "It's 100 Far!!  And Dad has that much gas!!"  I'm not surprised Cooper!  :)

Reid said, "Hey Gary!  Look at my feet!  I got big feet!"  He was wearing Lauralea's shoes!  Silly Reid.  I (and Lauralea as well) sure love this Reid guy.  He's such a joy and a fun kid.

We did a toy, book, and puzzle exchange this weekend and I took this picture when the boys were playing with these legos animals.  They had them all lined up and Reid said, "This like your poster Gary!"  So I took a picture of the poster so you could see what he was talking about.

Speaking of the poster in the picture above - here's what we talked about this morning and what we learned!!  You can't see it very well in the picture above, but in the middle and by the African Lions there is a lizard.  Cooper said, "Bode said that's a dinosaur that shoots poison!"  Haha!  Oh really?  Well let's find out what kind of lizard it really is - I'm going to believe Google over Bode.  (Sorry Bode.)  We learned there are over 6000 species of lizards and the one in our poster is a "Frilled Lizard" and here's a picture of what it looks like when it's frightened or on the defensive.  We found a short video of one.  The boys LOVED it.  They loved how fast the it could run on it's back legs!!
