Sophie - 6/15/2017

Sophie ate toasted whole wheat english muffin and no oranges for breakfast.  For lunch she ate ground beef, whole wheat elbow noodles, most of her peas, and two servings of applesauce.

There will not be any Blogs tomorrow, June 16th.  Little Treasures is closing for the afternoon so Lauralea and I can attend a Memorial service for the precious daughter of some dear friends of ours.  Thank you so much to all my Daycare Families for making it possible for us to attend the funeral and support this family.

For the first time this week all 6 six kids are here today!  It was a busy place this morning, but we had lots of fun!!  Here's a picture of the kids playing on the mattress and blue balance beam.  Hudson is a bit blurry in the background, as he was just coming in for a landing!!  :)  Sophie asked, "Hey Bubba! You wanna do 'how-a-bunga' with me?"  (I thought she said "cow," but she informed me it's "how.")  So Hudson immediately started chanting, "How-a-bunga, how-a-bunga, how-a-bunga...."  "NOOO!! Not like that!" Sophie yelled.  She hadn't described the specific instructions on how the game was to be played, but apparently he wasn't doing it right!!  :)

Sophie had been telling Hudson a story and the only part I heard was this; "I called him Stevie and that's funny!"  So I'm assuming that is Grandpa Steve.  :)  In the picture below Sophie was upset with Hudson because he wasn't doing whatever she wanted him to do.  She said, "You're not listening Bubba!  Go somewhere else and sing that!"  Ha!  Wow!  That's a bit harsh.  So I told her that Hudson liked singing his own songs too as well as singing with her.  :)

I think the kids were looking at some birds when I took the last picture.  I was intent on taking a picture and I never did see what they were looking at.  This picture gives you a good perspective of a big 4 year old!!  (Reid will be 5 in late September.)  NBC news recently ran a piece on how a study showed that kids who drink only Almond Milk (along with rice milk, soy milk, and maybe more) are on the average 1- 2 inches shorter than others the same age.  I think Reid may be an exception to that study!!  Haha!  He's drank almond milk almost his entire life!!
