Lunch Date with Kaylee

Eric and I went to visit Kaylee today at school on our lunch break. She was taking a nap, but finally woke up. She was in great spirits and very refreshed, but her friend was still asleep. The teachers had warned us that Kaylee likes to crawl and wake up her friends, boy they weren't kidding. Everytime we put her down she was off to go wake up her friend, who they call her boyfriend. I remind you that our school has low to the ground beds with no walls around them...very Montessori. The whole idea is for the child to crawl in and out of bed when they are tired or awake. Anyways, it was hilarious that Kaylee kept wanting to wake her friends up. Then once her friend was awake she sprinted to the table for lunch, because she was hungry. It amazes me that she goes to designated areas for things she wants. At the table, they sit down at these mini chairs (about broke my back) and eat off of metal plates, mini silverware, and plastic shot glasses for water. Today, she used her fork to put the food in her mouth for the first time! No one had ever seen her do it before. We packed broccoli in her lunch today, because she had stole her friend's broccoli the other day and loved it! So her faves right now are...blueberries, edamame, broccoli, cheerios, pasta wagon wheels. It was nice to have lunch with our growing girl!
