Reid - 5/5/2016

Reid ate two servings of cinnamon roll and three servings of blueberries for breakfast.  For lunch he ate two slices of turkey, ate whole wheat bun, maybe half of green beans, and ate strawberries.  When I called the boys for breakfast to come wash Cooper said, "I've been gone longer!"  What does that mean?  "It means I get to wash first!!"  Ha!  Well I'm not familiar with that rule so we'll just continue to take turns washing first!  (Besides being the most fair way, it's also the SAFEST way!!  Otherwise they race wildly and recklessly to get to the sink to wash first!!)   :)

Reid had built a small tower with the blocks and then was trying to show Hudson how to knock it over.  "Hudson, you do it like this."  Then he was hugging on Hudson and wanted Lauralea to see it; "Hey Lauralea! Look!"  Reid is such a sweet boy.  Sure love him lots!!

We are playing outside in the afternoons so I'm not able to post pictures from the same day!!  I took these first two pictures yesterday.  The Cline kids (2/3rd's of them) and the Templeton kids (2/3rd's of them) on the teeter-totter.  :)  It's a bit small, but nobody seems to care!!  Just having fun!  In the next picture Kenzie is showing some good form.  Also in the second picture you can see the ice cream carts and dump trucks all lined up.  All four of the kids below were running and jumping over each of the obstacles.

Here's a picture of the boys with a poster we'd made a few days ago, but we laminated it this morning when Sophie was at Kindermusik and the two babies were sleeping.  We took a field trip to the basement where the laminator is located.  :)  Cooper was looking at the top of the holding tank (which holds the septic sump pump) and asked, "What's down there?"  I told him it was a holding tank for the basement bathroom so it holds poop and pee and then the pump pushes it up the pipe that you are hanging on to.  Hahaaa!  You should have seen how quick he turned loose of that pipe!!  :)
