Miles - 11/17/2021

Miles ate half of his whole wheat toast and ate mangoes for breakfast. For lunch he ate a large serving of ground beef with marinara sauce on top of a large serving of whole wheat spaghetti noodles, ate cauliflower, and ate fruit salad. 

I know I talk a lot about the kids pushing each other's buttons and especially at the window waving bye to the Parents. This morning was a classic for Cal and Miles. So I took the picture below while the boys were waiting at the window for Momma Emily to come around the corner. (They would miss waving SO MANY TIMES if I didn't watch and re-direct their attention!!) Cal sprinted to the window and on the way there was already saying, "My Mom, My Mom, My Mom." And of course Miles was vehemently opposed to that statement and knew it was a blatant lie!! Haha. Then Cal said, "My Dad already come." (Which was not a lie! Ha.) Miles had no clue what that meant and started yelling, "My Dad, My Dad, My Dad!!" Haha!! Same song, but a different person. You little turkeys are crazy!! :)

Next picture; So they can be yelling at each other one minute and the next minute (literally) be having the "time of their life!!" Kids are pretty amazing that way!! Yesterday afternoon Cal and Svea were holding hands and dancing/spinning so Cal decided Miles needed to do it as well. :) Following two pictures: Svea and Cal were playing with some binoculars and both were looking at Miles - through the end that makes someone look far-away!! Miles was totally absorbed in playing with the legos.

Last picture; The kids were doing some Art at the table. Svea likes to get everything - paper, markers, pencils, stickers, etc - set up for the boys. Miles takes off the lids on the markers and knows how to get them back on; and listens for the "snap" to know it's on. Occasionally there will be a lid that's hard to get off and then Svea will help with that too.
