Morgan ate seconds on biscuit and all of her peaches at breakfast. At lunch she ate all of her steamed broccoli and baked beans, most of her pineapple and bites of her dinner roll.
I decided to try seeing if any of the "big" kiddos are interested in
using the bathroom this morning. I was just going to take the older
four (who are all two, or almost). Kenzie was determined that she
needed to come too, so I took her also. They all tried valiantly, but
only Jadey and Alayna were able to go either time. I will keep trying
all of them for a couple weeks (as long as they want to), then will
focus on those who are being successful after that. If you want me to work with her please make sure she has easy on and off clothes for those self-help skills. Most of Morgan's clothes are actually pretty good. I just took off the tutu the second time.
I
had given an award to the two who pooped in the potty this morning and
let them put a sticker on it. Of course, all of the other kiddos wanted
a "ticker" too, so I decided we would do stickers for art time today.
That sufficed them.
Morgan had a great day today -- listened very well, was engaged in play, gentle and loving to the kiddos (and us) and no defiance or melt-down moments.

Morgan ate all of her waffles and about half of her hashbrowns at breakfast. At lunch she ate all of her shrimp and rice, about half of her red pepper and a bite of orange slices.
Morgan spent quite a bit of time loving on Gary this morning. He was sitting on the floor and she just went over to him, backed up and sat down on his lap. They visited and snuggled for quite a while.
Jadey decided she wanted to hold Morgan today and invited her to sit on her lap. Morgan went right over and plopped down and both of them were grinning from ear to ear. It was pretty cute.
Morgan did puzzles right outside the gate where the babies couldn't get to her or the puzzles for quite a while today. There really aren't any puzzles that we have had in the last three sets that she can't do now. At first she struggled with the ones that didn't have the pictures under the pieces, but now she does them excellent also.
Morgan loved it when I sang "How much is that Doggy in the Window?" while holding one of the stuffed puppies out in the back room. She especially liked it when I wagged his tail when it got to that stop. She was really laughing.

Morgan ate all of her cheerios and about half of her banana at breakfast. At lunch she drank about half of her tomato soup and ate all of her apple slices and her grilled cheese sandwich.
Morgan and Kenzie were waving the shakers above their heads and chanting "Go Griz!" over and over this morning. When Gary and I started talking about it, they really got into doing it to show off. It was super cute!
Morgan was talking into both one of the echophone and into the transmitter end of the stethoscope. The echophones look like plastic microphones, but vibrate inside of them when you talk into them and it makes them echo.
Gary's razor batter was dead when he tried to shave first thing this morning so he had to charge it first. When it was charged he started to shave. The kiddos don't usually get to seem him do that and they were mesmerized, especially Morgan.
