Cal - 04/02/2021

Callahan ate oatmeal and most of baked cinnamon apples for breakfast. For lunch he ate hamburger stew with meat, carrots, tomatoes, and green beans. He ate half of whole wheat dinner roll, and ate fruit cocktail.  

These first two pictures are from yesterday afternoon. Svea and Cal had SO much fun playing together. Nora and Miles had already left for South Dakota so it was these two along with Atley and Avi. (The two Easter egg fanatics!) In the first picture these two were singing, "Teeter-totter bread and water, wash your face with dirty water.....all fall down." And they'd "fall" off and laugh like crazy. ("All fall down" from Ring around the Rosie.)

Next picture: Svea is busy informing Cal he is not wearing the "super hero" cap/mask correctly!! There are slots for the eyes and he "needs" to pull it down over his eyes. Haha. Following picture; Doing play dough together and again Svea is assuming she's the teacher!!  Haha.

Last picture: Bet you don't recognize this corner!?! We did a "lockdown drill" this morning and I use this room downstairs. We have it set up with some toys and activities in case that ever happened. I have to do 2 of these kind of drills yearly and I always choose days when I have less than a full load of kids!! It's so much easier to herd everyone downstairs safely! (Nora and Miles are in route to South Dakota.)

Callahan ate kix cereal and fruit cocktail for breakfast. For lunch he ate two servings of ground turkey, bites of whole wheat hamburger bun, ate avocado, tomatoes, and cherries. I took this first picture shortly after Cal arrived and I just thought it was cute how he was sitting on the edge of the mattress reading his book. Second picture: He and Atley were having fun being silly before anyone else arrived. These two are basically on the same humor level. Haha. They find each other to be quite hilarious. Next picture: Cal actually did quite a bit of Art - although I think he eventually tossed most of it in the trash. He was doing stickers, drawing, and gluing with the glue stick. This next picture is pretty funny as Cal was singing, "I'm keeping your .......?!?........ forever and ever." I never could figure out what he was keeping forever and always, but it was pretty cute!! :) Last picture: Cal was throwing the paper airplane off the balance beam. This is actually a pr...

Callahan ate two servings of bran cereal and ate most of raisins for breakfast. For lunch he ate chicken, bites of toasted whole wheat pita bread, bites of cucumbers, ate avocado, and ate pears. At Lunch time Cal asked me; "How you day Gary?" Excellent. He'd repeat it; I'd say excellent. He finally said, "Say good." Haha. I didn't realize that was why he kept repeating it!!  We did a toy, book, and puzzle exchange this weekend and these two guys were playing with the bunny ears. Miles put it on his head by himself one time, but in the second picture Cal had put it on him. :) Next picture: Miles likes getting in these tight spots and hanging out. So you can probably guess what Cal was asking him, right!? "Can I come in?!?" "Can I come in?" Can I come in?" Oh sure Cal, there is lots of room, come on in!! :) Silly kids. Last picture: Cal was playing with the food toys, mixing and stirring with the spoons and then Miles joined him fo...

Callahan ate French toast casserole and ate his dried plums for breakfast. For lunch he ate pulled pork, whole wheat toast, peas, and mandarin oranges. How do you like this whacky first picture?!? Haha. Cal and I were having fun with this flexible sheet of magnifying plastic. You gotta big head on a little body there Cal!! :) Next picture: The kids were having fun with these cups, cutting up lots of beads, filling the cups, taping the top shut, and calling them "shakers." I ended up putting scotch tape on the top of Cal's cup - he didn't have very many beads in his - and they all stuck to the tape and wouldn't shake. Haha. He wasn't real thrilled with how that came out!! Next picture: Cal was just hanging out watching Atley and Avi folding paper following "Origami for Kids" on Youtube. Making a dog and bone. Miles is gone until Tuesday so Cal didn't have him to wrestle with today!! Haha. Last picture: Svea was putting a necklace on Cal's neck...
