10/6/2014

Mia ate two servings of chex cereal and ate mixed fruit for breakfast.  For lunch she ate roast beef sandwich, drank tomato soup, and ate apple pieces.

Mia keeps me laughing with some of the cute and funny things she comes up with!  At the breakfast table she randomly said, "I'm not big enough; I'm little enough!"  (She was trying to tell Cooper she was a little girl, not a big girl.)  Prior to breakfast she'd been gazing longingly at Lauralea's breakfast and said, "I like bagel and cream cheese!"  Which, of course, is what Lauralea was eating!  Then she stuck her face in Lauralea's yogurt and said (with a long and wistful sigh),  "Ahhhhh...I haven't had yogurt this year; just ice cream!!"  LOL

Cooper always recognizes the Dr. Seuss logo on the books.  One of the books in this exchange is "There's a Wocket in my Pocket."  I asked them; "What is this book?"  Cooper said, "Dr. Seuss."  Mia said, "There's a wallet in my pocket!"  LOL

There are lots of different creatures in this toy exchange so I got out the "fish tank" and set it on the sinks for the kids to examine.  The lights, bubbles, and changing colors make it fun to watch and the three fish actually look pretty realistic.

We did a toy, book, and puzzle exchange this weekend and there are lots of toys in this set!  I also got out a bag of dinosaurs that been "missing" and Cooper and Mia were thrilled with those.  One of the dinosaurs is biting Cooper's finger in this picture.

There are some combs in this toy set and Mia asked Cooper, "You want a pony?"  "Yah," he said, without much enthusiasm.  (But he was totally content to let her mess with his hair for several minutes.)  She asked, "What color do you want?"  :)  I like how she has a comb in each hand; kind of a dual threat!  Later, Cooper was combing Baby Elliott's hair.
