Reid - 9/14/2016

Reid ate three servings of breakfast:  Whole wheat toast and cantaloupe.  For lunch he ate three servings of ham, three servings of crackers, couple bites of bean & bacon soup, and three servings of strawberries.  At breakfast (before Sophie arrived) I said, "Where you at Sophie?"  Reid said, "Just call her Dad!"  (In a tone that said, "Duhhhh.")  Reid looked at her elbow at lunch time and while pointing at it said, "Her have a red spot on her ankle."  Ha!  (She apparently laid her elbow in one of the ink pads at Art Time while we were stamping.)

I took this first picture yesterday afternoon when Reid was going around hugging the little ones.  It was so sweet.  Reid has a couple of "transformers" in his hands that Hudson is focused on.  About the same time as I was taking this picture Reid said, "Uhhhh...Gary..He's poopy!"  Haha!  Thank you Reid!!  Update from this morning - the same identical thing happened!  While I was taking a picture Hudson was sitting on Reid's lap on the mattress and Reid said, "Uhhh...Gary...He's poopy!"

A song was playing on the iPod; "The Big Rock Candy Mountain."  (At least I think that's the name of it!)  I asked Reid, "Have you ever seen the Big Rock Candy Mountain?"  He said, "Yup!  We climbed up there!  We left my Thor Hammer by the waterfall!"  Haha!!  (I'm assuming that was at Holland Lake.)

Sophie and Reid were playing with the Big Bears on the mattress and she jumped on a bear while Reid was under it.  He said, "Whoa! How much do you weigh Hofie!?!"  Ha!  She also played with the tutus and carrying her purse again.  She was yelling, "Bye everyone, bye everyone!"  Where are you going Sophie?  Same as yesterday she said, "Uhhhmmm...lake."  Reid yelled, "Ya mean Lake Como!?" Sophie said, "Yah, lake Como."  Ha!  I roared.  Reid remembers lots of names of places he went this summer.

I was feeding Baby Nora and Reid was looking at himself in the biggest mirror.  That mirror will distort at certain angles and levels!  At first I didn't realize what he was doing.  He said, "You gotta look at this Gary!!"  Well I can see you just fine.  "No!  In the mirror."  What do you see?  "I have a tiny body and a big head!!?!!"  It was pretty funny!!
