Miles - 11/19/2021

Miles ate bites of oatmeal and bites of apple slices for breakfast. For lunch he ate hamburger stew with meat, carrots, green beans, tomatoes, and potatoes. He had no whole wheat dinner roll, and ate his fruit cocktail.

When Svea arrives Miles frequently (again this morning) says; "Va Va home; Va Va home." It's so cute and it always makes me laugh. "Yup, she just got home Buddy."

First picture: Svea had the food toys all laid out nicely and when she left the room Miles quickly moved in to where she'd been playing. Miles likes to shuffle toys back and forth from one container to another container. I read that one benefit from an activity like this is "increased focus and increased attention span." I'm saying those would be some of his strengths!! When he's interested in something there is no problem with attention span. Second picture: Then Miles moved on to the legos table. I love that he has been spending more and more time at the legos table. Good work Miles.

Next picture: Svea worked hard at building this wall and like I've mentioned several times we have a rule "If you build it, then you can destroy it." And the boys were doing pretty well with that and intentionally being careful. Well you can see from the bottom picture all heck broke loose! Ha. And Svea participated in wrecking it. Then she started building again and Miles was still in "destroy mode." Oops. Svea said, "Miles, you can't knock them over. I worked very hard at this." I was a little confused as well Miles. Hard to imagine there was some incongruence happening at Daycare!!

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...
