8/2/12

Morgan ate all of her blueberries and about half of her cinnamon raisin bread at breakfast.  At lunch she ate all of her chicken on saltines and her potato salad and a bite of her canned cherries. 

Warning -- it was a pretty rough day today!  Read at your own risk.  : ) 

It started out just fine, except she was yawning a lot and told me several times that she was tired, which is unusual.  We began with her going over to the block poster and deciding that "we" needed to build the train-like one.  "We" built it with 6 seats so that all of the bigger kiddos would have a place to sit (Jadey visited again today).  Morgan was fine until other kiddos started coming then she decided that ALL of the seats were "mine" and didn't want to let anyone else sit on the train.  We problem solved through that with only a minor melt-down, which was great. 

Morgan, Kenzie and Jadey were all three playing together pretty peacefully at the lego table after that and building with the duplos.  Emily came over and tried to stand my Morgan and I guess that was just more than she could stand because she whirled around and bit her on the arm (full set of teeth marks).  When I made her leave the lego table there was another melt-down, though not severe.  After she was ready to give Emily a love and ask her if she was all right, she came over to me and started chuckling and pointing to her shirt saying, "Oh no!  Doggie broke!"  I think that was a pretty good distraction technique. 

After breakfast I had three kiddos on one side of the room and four on the other (with the littlest three taking their morning nap).  Morgan did an awesome job of waiting her turn to "switch sides".  She read some stories with Emily and even played with Thomas a little. 

Outside Morgan decided that she needed to lay on the merry-go-round with her feet flailing around.  Jadey obviously wanted her to quick kicking so she bit her (again hard enough to leave a full set of teeth marks) right above her ankle.  Ugh!!!  Cold cloth and ice pack here we come. 

She was asleep almost immediately but has been fairly restless with three brief awakenings so far.  Probably her cold bugging her!
