This is a boy who said he wasn’t taking a nap today.
Donut and Airplanes
Yai bought the kids donuts this morning. These guys love sprinkle donuts.
Janie later showed the rest of the kids how to make paper airplanes.
Later that afternoon, we hopped back on the plane and headed back to Alameda. These kids were exhausted and both fell asleep on the way up.
Nature Walk and Whine
We went back to El Dorado Park this morning for their Nature Center Trail. It started out great with lots of enthusiasm and curiosity.
Then slowly the boy started to get tired and hungry and it was all downhill from there.
There was a lot of cajoling and negotiating for the latter half of the walk. Peanut was so unhappy and said he “couldn’t walk anymore”. *sigh*
He fell asleep just minutes after getting back in the car so maybe he really was tired. We’re gonna have to build up his walking muscles and bring a snack next time.
Basketball and Naps
The kids tried out Uncle Johnny’s new basketball hoop and then played in the bounce house.
When it was nap time, Leela and Peanut went for a ride with Mama and Uncle Johnny to pick up Thanksgiving pies. Worked like a charm.
SoCal for Thanksgiving Break
We flew down tonight to spend Thanksgiving Break in Cerritos. It was a late flight and Peanut fell asleep.
When we arrived at Yai and Ta’s house, he was ready to go again.
Flying Home
Time to fly back to Alameda!! Peanut fell asleep on the plane ride.
Sleeping
The boy fell asleep in Mama’s bed this evening.
Working Hard
Peanut has been doing a good job following along with his teacher over Zoom. Today’s lesson was to predict whether or not an apple would sink or float in a tub of water.
He also did some math problems with the class and had to show his work.
All that work must have taken a lot out of him bc napping was not a problem this afternoon.
Nap
What an exciting morning he had. Despite the fight, he fell asleep on the sofa for a much-needed nap.
Sleepover
