Miles - 12/10/2021

Miles ate cream of wheat cereal and dried plums for breakfast. For lunch he ate bites of chicken, ate brown rice, half of broccoli, and ate a large serving of pineapple. I was helping Miles finish up his cereal and he kept saying the same thing again and again and again......and I had no clue what he was saying. I said, "Sorry, but I don't understand. And you don't need to just keep saying the same thing over and over. He said, "Oh." Then he said, "Over and over. Over and over. Over and over." LOL. Well at least it was something different and I knew what he was saying this time!! :)

Thought you might enjoy a quote from Avi and Nora during snack yesterday. They were talking about how much older they are than Svea. "When Svea is in Kindergarten we will be in 2nd grade." They went through several grades and then ended with this doozy!! Avi said, "When me and Nora are grown-up Svea will be a teenager." Ha. Maybe by the time you're "grown-up" you'll also learn how to say "Nora and I."

I took this first picture when we were waiting for Momma Emily to come around the corner. And this is why I watch for you; they'd never last long enough at the window to see you coming. They were giving each other "5" then it turned into fist bumping and that was starting to escalate of course! I saw a bare knuckle fistfight coming! Haha. Thank goodness Momma showed up at the right time. Second picture; I had the boys busy coloring while I was fixing the cereal for breakfast.

Next picture: Svea was reading her book - "Gingerbread Baby" - to the boys first thing this morning. In the following picture she was pushing the boys in the swivel/rocker. The picture makes it look so peaceful and easy! Haha. Initially Cal had been laying across the seat so Miles couldn't have a spot and Svea asked me for help instead of screaming at him. I was SO happy with her because we've really been working hard on that. Last picture: Miles was absorbed in the barnyard chores. Ha. Sorting his cattle in the stalls.

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...
