Mia ate half of her whole wheat toast and ate mixed berries for breakfast. For lunch she ate ham, crackers, bean & bacon soup, and ate two servings of fresh plums. I told her they kind of tasted like a type of apple so now she calls them apples. "More apples please!" :)
Lauralea was "getting them" this morning and I love how hard Nora and Mia are laughing in this picture. Cooper kept asking her to do it again and again; "gin, gin, gin." (With a hard "g" sound, not like a drink!) :) Soon after this they were all spinning and twirling, holding on to stuffed animals.
And this is just a picture of another way the girls are playing with the igloo. Sometimes it's their horse, sometimes they are drumming on the top.
I occasionally get calls from telemarketers and I put one on speaker phone. When Mia heard a man's voice she yelled, "Hi Daddy!" Now in my world here at Day Care that was really funny! I roared with laughter, but he didn't think it was nearly as funny as I did! :)
The kids were spinning and twirling really fast with some stuffed animals. Mia was loving being rowdy and was yelling, "Help help help!" Silly girl. Sometimes when she gets to squealing or yelling too loud here is what I do - I will ask them to use a quiet voice (and give an example of the volume expected), but another thing we have used a lot is giving them words to say rather than just begin loud. The phrase I use is "This is fun!!" And Mia totally gets this concept, which doesn't surprise me at all because she's all about language. :) She was being loud and immediately started saying, "This is fun, this is fun!" (Two or three times this morning.) Lauralea was impressed! :)
