This week was spirit week for Kellen's preschool class and there was lots going on! He usually goes to school three days a week, but his teacher invited him to come for the whole week so he could participate in their 100th Day of School and Valentine's Day celebrations. So I got a tiny glimpse of what it will be like to be without him for part of the day every day of the week! Anyway, for spirit week the kids had to dress differently each day - class color day, team sport day, mixed up clothing day, red for Valentine's Day, and today was crazy hair day. It has been a bit of a struggle to convince Kellen to participate in some of these, especially mixed up clothing day and crazy hair day. He wasn't too excited about looking different and heading off to school. For mixed up day he conceded to wear two different socks, and he said he was mixed up but it was a secret. He agreed to do the crazy hair thing only if I would let him spray it red and silver. I totally forgot to get the colored hair spray, so he was sad about that this morning. I convinced him to let me put lots of product in his hair and give him a little mohawk instead. He agreed it was cool since it made him look like a real drummer... ;) I think it's cute! Would have been cuter with red and silver spikes...
When Kellen was a little guy he ate whatever I gave him, and he really liked peas. He would clean his tray and say "mo wittle gween bawws!" I've been offering Ellary more and more table food, and today for lunch she had a tray full of "little green balls." She immediately went after them, probably because they are an interesting color. She seemed to like them, but she still preferred the mashed up veggie baby food that I gave her once she started slowing down on the peas.
She had had enough of little green balls,
