Cal - 12/29/2021

Callahan ate two servings of whole wheat English muffin and two servings of mandarin oranges for breakfast. For lunch he ate most of his Hearty Paleo Stew with meat, carrots, tomatoes, sweet potatoes, green beans, broccoli, and cauliflower. He ate saltines and pineapple/mango. 

This first picture is left over from yesterday afternoon when we were experimenting with the balloon on a string activity again. The balloon releases it's air and propels itself down the string. The kids were enjoying having their own balloons and trying to blow them up. Hudson (partially hidden), Avi, and Atley are all blowing up their balloons in the picture. I also blew up balloons for Svea and Cal.

Next picture: Atley was here when Callahan arrived and he joined her as she was carefully arranging her "store." Ha. She had everything laid out in a very orderly fashion. She was also instructing Cal on what he could grab for her off the shelves. Every time she'd ask him Cal said, "I'm not very good at finding stuff." So I guess that's just in the male genetic makeup; we'd rather the female find stuff for us. Haha.  

Next Picture; Here's the "Pirate Ship" that Avi and Atley built for them to play on. Avi, of course, was the self-appointed "Captain" and she appointed Atley as the "Back-up Captain." Avi interpreted that very literally! "If the enemy ship comes you back up the ship." Haha. You can see Avi is wearing her "Captain Hat." Cal said, "We're ready Captain!!" Haha. Notice Atley in the back providing the source of power for the boat - pushing it across the water with her head!! Haha.

Last picture: The kids played a couple of card games: Crazy Eights & SlapJack. I was assisting them of course; especially the two younger ones, but Cal actually won the Crazy Eight game. Ha. And then he was done; he wanted to go play. Or maybe he wanted to leave on a winning streak!! :) The three girls continued with SlapJack and they had a good time with that game.

Callahan ate whole wheat toast and mangoes for breakfast. For lunch he ate two large servings of ground beef with marinara sauce on top of two large servings of whole wheat spaghetti noodles, ate green beans, and fruit salad. First picture: The girls were doing "origami for children" and following an instructional video folding paper into butterflies. Cal wanted to do some kind of Art so he decided on practicing some cutting again. That's been his "go to thing" lately. He always asks if he can put the many pieces on his Cubby for "Mom and Dad." Haha. Second picture; Having fun with Avi. She loves to rough-house with the boys and of course they love it as well! It's no wonder why Avi, Cal, and Miles are good buddies. Next two pictures: Miles brought his Fire Truck today and shared it for a short period. He was fine sharing with Avi, but didn't want Cal to touch it. So it went back to his Cubby. Following picture; Back to the Front End Loaders!! ...

Callahan ate waffle and two large servings of grapes - LOVE those Candy Snaps - for breakfast. For lunch he ate half of his chicken, ate whole wheat tortillas, corn, and apple pieces.  This was Cal's first activity after waving bye to Dad and Hudson this morning. Art projects haven't been his first choice so this is picture worthy!! :) Next picture; The boys wanted Avi to lift them out of the chair and of course she was ready to oblige them. Uhhmmm, maybe you should take your game to the Play room where the landing is not hardwood floor. But first I gotta get a picture. Ha. Following picture: They were doing random jumps, butt bombs, and face plants. I encouraged them to synchronize their maneuvers for a photo - haha, right - but I could have stood there taking pictures all day and it probably wouldn't have happened. Last two pictures: Once again the girls didn't want to go outside so I basically stand at the entrance door watching the boys through the window and monito...

Hello to all of Cal and Hudson's Family!! As you all know Little Treasures is soon to close it's doors and I'll be moving on to another phase of my life. I'm totally serious when I say all the Boyle Family has been super close to my heart and all of you guys are the best. It's all passed so quickly and today is Cal's last day here. What a blast it's been to have Cal in my Program. As he's gotten older and his sense of humor has developed I must say; I think Cal and I are both inflicted with a serious case of silliness!! Haha. He makes me laugh so much. Here's to you Cal; or "Bob" or "Bob Sanks." Love you so much. Here are two parting pictures: Cal and Miles playing "Ring around the Rosy." Nothing more fun than "we all fall down!!" Ha. Last picture: The girls are watching a "Chicken Dance" video and dancing/singing along with it. The boys, meanwhile, are marching to their own drum and Miles is chanting...
