5/9/13

Aaron ate over half of his grapes and no toast at breakfast.  At lunch he ate all of his cherries, about half of his potatoes but no chicken or dinner roll.  

Aaron has been so much more smiley and active this morning -- more laughing and busy-ness.  So glad he seems to be feeling better.  He still was very ready to lay down and go to sleep at nap time though.  

Aaron was so funny today when he was trying to get one of the transparent scarves to lay down flat.  He was determined to to it without a single wrinkle and it was frustrating him because he couldn't quite get it.  He finally brought it over to me and said, "help".  I helped him lay it out and he lay down on it for a couple minutes.  When he was done, he hopped up and said "I wake!"  It was so cute!

Aaron and Rae sat together at the table playing with the food stuff for quite a while.  They really don't play together that much here, so it was interesting to watch them interact.  They were mostly playing alongside of each other, but did talk to each other about what they were doing now and then.  

Aaron was very engaged sitting at the table looking at books.  He did that for a while then started verbalizing (ether singing or talking) as he looked.  He was really "reading" them and so focused. 

When we first got outside, Aaron came racing up enthusiastically trying to tell me something.  When I got it figured it, what he was trying to tell me was that he had found a dandelion.  Gary has declared war on the "stinkin' dandelions" (as he calls them) in our yard and the kiddos have picked up on it and love to show him when they spot one before he does.    It is usually Emily, Kenzie or Riley that spots them. This was the first time Aaron has done it!
