Miles - 09/01/2021

Miles ate three servings of French toast and three servings of strawberries for breakfast. I mix those two things together for Miles and Cal and they LOVE it!! For lunch he ate Hearty Paleo Stew with meat, cauliflower, broccoli, sweet potatoes, green beans, carrots, and tomatoes. He ate saltines and tropical fruit. 

During Lunch Cal was complaining about his big toe sticking out through the foot of one-piece pajamas. (I hadn't noticed there was even a hole! Ha!) So I cut the hole bigger so all his toes are exposed and I'm assuming that felt better because he was done complaining about it. Except now Miles was mad because I wouldn't cut his!! Haha. "Me Me Me Me!!!" 

This first picture is left over from yesterday afternoon. Here's what happened shortly after I took this picture. Miles was watching Svea set up some goodies for a "Birthday Party." He walked over and was in the middle of kicking the cake when I was able to abort his effort. Ha. It's SUCH a teachable moment when I catch them in the middle of a transgression!! It's much more effective than trying to talk about something that already happened. 

This picture is also left over from yesterday afternoon. Cal was putting one hand on top of his other hand and he wanted Miles to do the same thing. Cal said, "He won't answer me!!" Haha. So what do you want Miles to do? Cal said, "Put his hands like this." So I helped Miles do the same thing. 

Next picture: Svea was setting up a Birthday Cake again. She wanted Miles to have a closer look at it and put the binoculars up to his eyes. Svea said, "Look at the cake Miles!! Look at the cake!" Uhhh..you're not pointing the binoculars at the cake for him!! Haha. Following picture: Doing some coloring and some stickers. We also sang songs and did some sign language this morning. That was nice to do with the younger kids - the bigger girls had moved on to bigger and better things. Ha.

Miles ate waffle and three large servings of grapes - LOVE those Candy Snaps - for breakfast. For lunch he ate bite of his chicken, bites of whole wheat tortillas, bites of corn, and ate apple pieces.  Miles was pretty clingy to Daddy this morning and after Ryan left I told Miles; "Good job not crying." Miles said, "At Grandma Pam's?" Haha. Sure, at Grandma Pam's. Then he was telling me something about "puking" and I basically never figured it out except for this; "I got watermelon puke." Haha. Ok, whatever. First picture: Well did you notice Miles in this picture? Haha. He's laying on the couch, but I wanted to show you what he frequently does after arrival when he's a bit "bent out of shape." He wasn't crying or super upset, he just didn't like the transition. (He was playing with his truck and one of my tractors.) He likes to be alone and just regroup before starting his day. Side Note: This might be good info...

Miles ate whole wheat toast and three large servings of candy grapes. For lunch he ate bites of pork roast, bites of whole wheat tortillas, ate half of his carrots, and three large servings of fruit salad. Random notes:  Miles asked, "Did the thunder come to your house?" Yup. "Was it loud?" Yup. "Why?" Haha. I was snuggling Nora on the couch and Miles was listening to what I said to Nora. "Nora, You've always been my girl! You're so very sweet." Miles said, "I miss my Mom." LOL!! That hit my funny bone and I laughed so hard. Miles started laughing when he saw my reaction. So cute and sweet. I love how kids frequently arrange their words! On our way to Cold Springs Playground Nora started taking about Big Willy again as we passed his house. "I can't believe he died." Yes that was sad for me too! She said, "Did they bury him up ?" "Put him into ashes?" "Or in the sea?" So precious. Firs...

Miles ate three large servings of French toast covered with three large servings of strawberries for breakfast. For lunch he ate pork roast, saltines, half of his carrots, and ate his fruit salad. Right after breakfast Miles said, "Outside? Outside? Outside?" Cal said, "Well it's too foggy." Haha. "We'll go outside after Snack today Miles just like we did yesterday." So here is a picture from yesterday afternoon. The snow is pretty frozen underneath the new couple of inches we got. It makes for hard walking across the snow, but it was pretty entertaining to watch!! Especially when the boys also tried to push dump trucks across it as well. Miles gave up on that and just laid down on the path to the garage. :) Next picture: This picture from this morning reminds me of yesterday afternoon when the boys awoke from their naps and wanted to do some puzzles. As they were working Cal said, "Hey Gary! Miles did not yell at me when I was doing the puzzl...
