Miles - 10/13/2021

Miles ate French toast and two large servings of fruit cocktail for breakfast. For lunch he ate a large serving of Whole 30 Chili with meat, sweet potatoes, peppers, tomatoes, tomato sauce, and lots of spices. He had no whole wheat dinner roll, and ate his mangoes. 

This first picture is left over from yesterday afternoon when these two guys were the only ones here. Cal was giving Miles rides in the wagons and then loaded the big balls in there too. They followed me into the front yard to get sprinklers and hoses and they thought it was another "field trip." Haha. And they got to go in the storage unit on the end of the garage. It was exciting to explore the "forbidden" places they never get to go into. :)

A couple pictures from this morning. Svea moves into position and invites the boys to go under the bridge! (Well maybe it was a command, but we'll call it an invite!! Ha.) Following picture: You have to look closely, but Svea has a Hard Hat in front of her and they were using it like a bucket and filling it with toys. She and Cal had a plan and Miles joined them in collecting toys.

Last picture: We did some Dot Painting and the kids enjoyed this a lot. (I'm making that judgment from listening to their remarks! Ha!) The boys were using the paints in a traditional way, while Svea was using them more like a paint brush. (Her picture is upside-down.) Miles eventually was "double-fisting" it. Ha. Both hands going up and down!

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...
