2/16/12

Morgan ate about half of her cinnamon raisin English muffin and all of her blueberries at breakfast.  At lunch she ate all of her potato salad and her canned chicken on saltines.  She also had her tasting bite of canned cherries. 

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 be using them regularly. 

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.  Morgan was so into it and just kept looking at Emily like she couldn't figure out why she wasn't doing it at first. 

Potty training went well -- two times peeing in the toilet, one that she didn't go, and a dry diaper until nap time again.
