Hudson - 7/23/2018

Hudson ate a large bowl of kix cereal and most of his mixed fruit for breakfast.  For lunch he ate ground turkey, whole wheat hamburger bun, bite of tomatoes, bite of avocados, and ate cherries.

Linnea is gonna be back on Wednesday and everyone is asking about her!!  So I'm gonna start with a photo they sent me of Linnea last night.  Lots (10 days) of celebrating birthday #1!!  I like how her plate is upside-down!!  :)  We can't wait to see you Linnea!!

Bubbaisms from this morning: "Hey Gary! What took you so long!?!"  He was the last one eating and and said, "I'm done."  I finished what I was doing in the Play Room - Probably took at least 44 seconds - and went to help him wash. "Hey Gary! What were you talking about?"  I was working, not talking Slick.  :)
Random statement. "I'm not ready for winter." LOL! Well you've got a couple of weeks to prepare.
Atley came to Daycare wearing a crown. She wore it all morning and it's still on while she's sleeping. Hudson asked, "Are you a Princess?"  Well of course the answer was "yes."  :)
So we were outside and this exchange between Avi and Hudson made me laugh.  (This is egocentrism - totally normal for age group - on steroids!)  Avi said, "Hey Bubba!  Momma's gonna pick me up and we're gonna go to Grandma's house."  Hudson said, "But can you pull me in the wagon?"  LOL!!

We did a toy, book, and puzzle exchange this weekend and as usual the kids were engaged and busy all morning.  This next picture: Hudson (inside the "Tent") and Avi were still piling pillows and stuffed animals inside.  Outside:   This has been ongoing for several weeks, but I've not put it in the Blogs before.  There are 3 "big" bikes outside and 3 "little" bikes.  The three big ones are identical. Same colored handle grips...everything.  Believe me, different colored handle grips have caused major conflict in the past many years.  So I've had LOTS of experience in this area.  Hudson has been bickering with Avi for weeks about one of the three big bikes.  They are the SAME!  What is the difference!?!  Now I know!  Two of the bikes have "smooth" front tires, BUT the other bike has some tread (or as they call it; "stripes") left on it!  That bike is now sitting in the garage for awhile.  Whew!  We can all take a big deep breath and chill out!  :)

This last picture is silly, but it was also funny to me!!  I was showing the kids the toy shelves I'm building in the garage and they spotted my stash of popcorn!  (Some of you have a wine cellar - I have a popcorn stash!  Now you know my addiction! This is a 12.5 # bag and I buy it by the case with 4 per case.  I'll even do the math for you!  That's 50# per case.  How long does one case last?!?  That's my one secret!!)  ANYHOW, they all wanted to know; "What is that?!? What is that?!?"  So I asked them, "What is this?"  Atley said, "sack." True, but what's in the sack?  Nora said, "sack."  haha!  Hudson and Avilene both said, "I don't know!"  "I don't know."  Now they know.  Everyone now said, "I wanna eat it! I wanna eat it!!"  Me too.  :)
