Alayna ate all of her cinnamon raisin English muffin and blueberries at breakfast. At lunch she ate seconds on potato salad and all of her canned cherries and her canned
chicken on saltines.
All of the kiddos were quite
entertained today when I showed her the sign language cards I just got
and we learned several new signs. We use some of the self-expression
signs on a regular basis (please, thank you, move back, help me...) but
not many beyond those. This set of cards probably has about 40 signs on
it and we will see how learning more goes.
Potty training didn't go as well today for her -- only one time of peeing in the toilet and one poop in a very wet diaper.
All of my
"big" kiddos spent time looking at books. They just can't get enough of
them. When I asked if they wanted me to read to them, they all made a
beeline for the couch! It is pretty cute to watch. One of our goals is
to sow an interest in and love of books, so we love seeing them react
this way.
We got out some purple bath foam and
everyone, except Emily just dived right in, spread it around and started
drawing on it with their fingers and otherwise exploring it. It took
Emily until about halfway through art time to get going, but then she
also loved it. I don't think Alayna stopped grinning the whole time. She couldn't figure out why Emily wasn't as enthralled with it as she was to begin with.
