Reid - 1/26/2017

Reid ate raisin english muffin and LOTS of blueberries for breakfast.  For lunch he ate some chicken, ate crackers, bite of sweet potatoes, and ate LOTS of canned cherries.  

Reid and I were looking at some animals pictures and he said, "I thought that hunk (skunk) holding an acorn was a mouse."  LOL!  Well actually that's a chipmunk!  But it also has a stripe down it's back so I guess you could confuse it with a skunk.  Then he asked about a bird.  I told him that's a grouse and they are kind of yummy to eat.  "How'd you get one?"  Well I shot one.  He asked, "Can you shoot one for us!?"  Ha!!  


He was sitting in the chair and being a couch potato.  He said, "I'm gonna sit here all day!"  Ha!  Actually he kind of tried to, but I kept prodding him to do things, although he wasn't interested in doing some art work.  (I have a different plan for that!)  The only other kids here today are the two babies; Avilene and Nora.  So I got out a little tablet that Lauralea got me for Christmas just for times like this!!  :)  She loaded some toddler and preschool games on it.  One of them is a puzzle game and he said, "This one is on Mom's tablet."  And it was quickly obvious that he knew how that game worked!!  He was zooming those puzzles pieces into position!

There are some good learning opportunities on these games.  He was doing a word and alphabet game and said, "Hey Gary!  G is for giraffes too!"  He knows "G" is for Gary and that was a nice association he made.  Good thinking Reid!!
