Spaghetti Eating...and Sensitivity

Apparently Avery had a hard day at school today. He was not sharing, and not playing well with his friends. He had to be separated, which has never happened. And it might be because he had a sort of hectic morning, as I got a call that Popi had to got to the hospital again. I think he sensed it, as tonight he told me, "Mommy, I think that Nan is worried right now." I asked him why, and he said, "Nan is worried that Popi might fall off." I am not sure what he might fall off, but I think it is the bed, and I think Nan IS worried. Pretty sensitive translation.

So, we talked about his hard day, and how he shouldn't hit, and should share. And the deal was that he also needs to say he's sorry to Olivia, because he apparently took her blanket. And after our deal, he was able to have some spaghetti. I think he enjoyed it, but I am having trouble uploading the video--annoying. He was just slurping it up in big bites, with sauce all over his face and a big smile...and then kept saying YUM and SLURP the entire time. Too great.

Galloping and Pumpkin Rides

Updates: 1. Avery has learned how to gallop. He calls it skipping, and he has been doing it all around the living room, street, park, store... since yesterday afternoon. Everywhere. 2. Avery asked Walker, "What alphabet does your name begin with?" 3. I asked Avery what we are going to do tomorrow, and he said, "We are going to get some hay and ride on a pumpkin!" He's very excited, although he seems to have it switched around a bit.

A New Food Every Three Days...

Image
If you were to try a new food every three days for about a year, don't you think you'd get to the point where you had to be really creative to find something new? With combinations of ingredients, knowing that you have tried one dish, you would think that you'd exhaust the possibilities. Well, we've been new foods like this for some time now, and every time I go to the grocery or Farmer's Market, I come back with something new for Avery. Ritz crackers were introduced today! Chive cream cheese was on the menu a few days ago. This evening, we combined the two for Ritz cracker and chive cream cheese fiesta. Avery hogged down seven crackers piled high with cream cheese, had a huge piece of extra sharp cheddar, and some berry applesauce. This was all washed down with a huge bottle of organic whole milk, which friend Jeanna says, "tastes like fresh cut grass and ice cream." I am going to try to make a list of Avery's favorite foods : Veggies -sw...
