The Ways We Savor

0

The children ate a good dinner so I gave them each a pack of fruit snacks as a treat. Ella had almost her entire bag laying out on the table…I look over at Coop, he had none left..They are all shoved in his mouth…..his way of enjoying is not by savoring each piece separately…Its by eating them all at once enjoying a “fruit salad”!

A New Game

Ella talked almost the entire way home from Hershey, PA yesterday. After a fun filled day with no down time and no nap we thought for sure she’d zonk out…but we were blessed with her never ending conversation, questions and singing. About 15 minutes from home Josh had the brilliant idea to introduce the fun car game known as “The Quiet Game”!!!
After a few times of explaining we played and Ella now loves the game and keeps asking to play the new game!
Wonder how long it’ll take for her to realize it really isn’t a game, it’s a clever way to keep her quiet! Or at least attempt to!!!

Charlotte’s Web

Ella asked to watch Charlotte’s Web after Quiet Time…. not a fan of the movie, but I can’t deprive her of a classic!

Me… Captain Hook?

All you Jake and the Netherland Pirates fans…
We are role playing this morning. Ella is Izzy. Cooper is Jake. Daddy is Cubby (even though he is working)….can you guess who Ella anointed me to be?
