Morgan ate about half of her blueberry muffin at breakfast and all of her pears. At lunch she ate everything -- tuna on crackers, sweet potatoes and fresh oranges.
Morgan was a bit helper this morning. I had too many things going on last night and I didn't get the meals prepared to today so I was trying to do it before everyone came this morning. Morgan was thrilled and actually helped a LOT. She helped me through things in the trash, got containers and lids for me, put stuff away in the fridge and more. She was disappointed when we were done! : )
Morgan was playing with the teddy bears again today and suddenly said, "Oh look! Mommy bear holding her baby!" Sure enough, she was making the big bear wrap her arms around the little one. What cracked me up about it was the way she said it. It made it sound like she had nothing to do with it! : ) Also while playing with the bears she was trying to give Kenzie a lesson on different types of bears. the funny things about THAT was that she was talking about Koala Bears and Polar bears and I don't think we have any of those out right now! : ) Another bear play thing she and Kenzie did was to line (then layer) them up in front of the changing table and discuss which ones matched and why.
That lead to a conversation on us as people and how we "matched" and were different or the same. We talked about how we all had two hands, a nose, two ears... and some of us had one color hair and others another, polish on or not, buttons on our shirts or not, jeans or stretch pants, different colored eyes. The kiddos were really into it. It was great!
Morgan put on one of the dress-up shirts and a pair of dark sunglasses, then went over to the picnic table and stood on the bench part with an ice cream cone in her hand for a microphone and sang the "Star Spangled Banner" accurately enough that Gary could tell what it was. We were pretty impressed! : ) Preparing for one of the games next year, maybe!
