Miles ate some of his oatmeal and ate all his dried cranberries for breakfast. For lunch he ate a large serving of Hamburger & Sausage Pizza with meat, olives, pineapple, peppers, and tomato sauce. He ate none of his whole wheat pizza crust (we serve on the side) and ate three large servings of pineapple on the side as well.

This first picture is left over from yesterday afternoon at Cold Springs School playground. The kids had a great time there and they were all still talking about it this morning. As the weather warms up we may go over there occasionally in the mornings and then spend some time there this summer too. This is one of the smaller slides, but Cal was going down the big slide and Miles went down the big slide 3 times as well. Miles never got real comfortable with the bigger slide yesterday, but after one or two more visits he'll be flying down! And the big slides are pretty tall and steep!! 

Next picture: Cal and Svea put on the "Grizzly Suits." (Their words.) They kept saying, "We are the Grizzly Team." "The Grizzly team is winning!" What was Miles' part in this activity? He was assigned to start the game by pushing a button. Ha. Svea said, "Wait two minutes. I'm not quite ready." (She apparently had more food prep to do.)

Full disclosure: Miles played by himself a lot this morning. He seemed overly tired and pretty cranky all morning and it just worked better for him to have his own space. He'd ask to join them, "ok give it another try," and after a few minutes he was back doing his own thing. (He was yelling about every little thing that wasn't going his way.) He did puzzles, school buses, Doll House, Food toys, drawing, and eventually laid on the mattress about 11:00. So we ate a few minutes early!! (And he ate a great Lunch!)

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...
