Cal - 04/07/2022

Callahan ate blueberry bagel and ate peaches for breakfast.  For Lunch he ate ground turkey, whole wheat tortillas, ate sweet potatoes, and ate his blueberries.

Cal is one of these kids: Certain children THRIVE with routine and consistency. (R & C) I believe all children need R & C, but some even more than others. Cal was a totally different little boy when he came into Little Treasures this morning. (Compared to Monday - Wednesday morning at drop off.) Back to the Normal routine. I really can't overemphasize this fact. He was happy, immediately playing, being his silly normal little self! It was pretty amazing to witness this again. All was running smoothly in his world. He went to the block structure and that was his Ice Cream store. "What kind of Ice Cream do you want?" Well let's go with the Vanilla sprinkled with mint chips. :)

Reading books with a hint of "tint" gives one another perspective. :) Second picture: Waiting in eager anticipation (or maybe his expression is more boredom - ha) as Svea unveils the goodies she brought from Home today!! 

Next picture: Miles was doing Puzzles and Cal stopped by when he saw which Puzzle Miles was working on. They were identifying some of the vehicles represented in the Puzzle. "Excavator, Fire Truck, Tractor, Dump Truck" and 4 or 5 more. Following picture: Although you'd never guess it from this picture the Boys were having fun doing a Dinosaur Game. Dinosaurs that roared!! :)

Last picture; Miles and Cal were actually doing "Ring Around the Rosy" first and then Svea asked to join them. (Miles said, No." Ha. Little Goof.) Prior to this they were playing a Game and I was watching trying to understand ANY part of it! Ha. Cal kept calling Miles the "Guard-er." "Miles! You're the  Guard-er." Then Cal showed him how to be a "Guard-er." "You go like this!!" And Cal did a Military Salute. Haha. Finally Svea said, "I'm in Jail and he's Guarding me." Haha. Ok, now I got it.

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 two servings of whole wheat English muffin and ate grapes for breakfast. For lunch he ate bites of pork roast, some whole wheat toast, half of his beets, and ate applesauce.  Callahan and Svea were arguing about giving Alexa instructions. Cal was yelling, "more" and Svea was yelling, "Stop." That was bugging Eden and she came over and asked, "Why are you fighting?" And Cal verbalized it very well. Eden asked, "Do you know rock-paper-scissors?" That hit my funny bone. Oh well, nice try Eden. First picture: Story on the left and Eden on the right were pretending to sleep after Cal arrived and he was intent on waking them. Ha. Second picture: Cal and Miles after a spider - they said they saw one - I never saw it. They ended up jostling for territory that the imaginary (maybe) spider had just vacated. Haha. Svea asked Alexa for "Animal Workout" and Cal was playing along with her for a little bit. Miles started dinking around be...
