Grinder

Ryan has learned some new skills: gurgling and grinding his teeth!  The last one is quite annoying.  I'm not really quite sure how he grinds them as the top one is hardly any tooth!  He seems to really want to feed himself.  He always seems quite proud of himself when he gets the puffs or a biscuit in his mouth and he loves drinking his water.  Michael has a cough right now and his voice is becoming hoarse.  So far he has stayed on the green circle in his new classroom (they have a traffic light discipline system).  Olivia is still his best friend at school.  I went to the huge consignment sale this past week and bought lots of Christmas presents and clothes.  I volunteered to work 6 hours in exchange for shopping earlier than the general public.  I think it was worth it as things were not picked over and there were not any crowds.  We also went on a walked (called Tyke Hikes) through a park and learned about leaves.  Here is a picture of Michael (Ryan is in the background) doing a craft: http://www.flickr.com/photos/tykehikes/.
