Miles - 01/05/2022

Miles ate whole wheat toast and three servings of grapes for breakfast. For lunch he ate tilapia, wholewheat elbow noodles, green beans, and applesauce.

Just an FYI, Miles has started "pouting" when I redirect him, but he's not yelling or crying in the middle of his distress. He just melts to the floor face-first and looks exactly like his Sister. Haha. Speaking of Nora, here's another (more positive) thing he does exactly like her: He never fails to say "thank you" when I give him his food. It's so cute and I love it. Nora did that same thing at a young age while still in her highchair. I just had another memory of her at meal time and I'd bet money Miles does NOT ever do this. Ha. She ALWAYS wanted to be the first one done and she'd quit in the middle of her meal if someone else said, "Done, done." She was obsessed with it and would scream and yell. When it comes to food, Miles be like; "Just keep the food coming!!"

First picture; This is a "Frozen" book that Svea brought from home and Miles was captivated by it!! Chanting (137 times) "Frozen Book, Frozen Book, Frozen Book." When I took this picture he was wanting me to sit down and read to him. Sorry Miles, gotta do the picture thing first. So I read 2 stories out of it and they wanted more and more. Second picture; Svea continuing to read from her book. 

Next picture: There's a story behind this one! See Cal's feet on the left as he's going head-first down the slide. They were lining up and taking turns. Miles had just went down so he was supposed to get behind Svea, but you can see where he's at. She told him to get behind her and he took a step toward the mirror and crumpled to the floor face-first once again devastated. Ha. The Struggles and Trials of a Toddler.

Next picture: The Artist at work after breakfast. Last picture: Did I mention he was a bit obsessed with the "Frozen Book" Svea brought from home? :)

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...
