Aaron ate did want to come out for breakfast and neither did Emily so they played together while the rest ate.  At lunch he ate all of his saltines, ham, mandarin oranges and even a couple bites of bean soup.  Wow!  It is unusual that he eats that much at a meal here!  

Aaron had to immediately go to the rowdy side and join Kenzie and Emily in their play when he got here.  They asked him if he wanted to be their puppy and he dropped onto all fours to comply.  

After breakfast they all again played together and were pretending to "oh oo erk" (go to work).  Their car to go to work was the balance beam.  They sat on it facing the wall.  One of them would announce "We're here!" and they would all jump down and go to different areas of the rowdy side to work.  It was pretty cute.  

Kenzie and Emily were in the igloo and Aaron, all on his own, banged on the top of it, peeked inside and said loudly asked "anyone home?"  All three of them were enjoying it and laughing about it.  

I asked each of the older kiddos what song they wanted to sing and Aaron immediately told me he wanted "twinkle little star".  I didn't understand him immediately, but he stuck with it until I got it!  We were right in the middle of doing our sign language and singing when Kari came today and he still jumped up and went right over to her and the gate to go to the back room for their session.  It was cute!  

He needed quite a bit of cuddling after mom left after his session today.  He asked "where mommy?" and said he wanted mommy multiple times.  He never actually cried, but was pretty close a couple times.  Changes in routine are difficult for most of the kiddos, and he is no exception!
