Eggs

Thanks to the celebration of Dr. Seuss's birthday, which included green eggs and ham at both of Adeline's preschools, Adeline has become an Eggaholic!  Everyday and every meal she asks for eggs.  Forget the sought after yogurt, she wants eggs.  I limit her to a helping of two scrambled eggs once a day.  It is strange that my child with sensory/food aversions will eat what many typical kids are adverse to.  We will see what a little protein will do to her slight and delicate frame.

Worth Reporting

We can go on family runs again without both parents pushing 75+ pounds in stroller weight.  Previously, we have pushed the twins in one stroller - 100 lbs, and Savannah in a single jogging stroller -75lbs.  It is quite a task.  I remember running with the twins in the double jogger when they were about 15 lbs a piece.  Times have changed and the run has become much harder and less enjoyable.  Well, the girls probably like it more, but the parents don't. 

The change. . . Savannah can ride her bike!!  She rode for three miles the other day which took her out of the neighborhood.  The route includes many hills with a combination of roads and paths.  She tackled the hills and kept ahead of us the whole time.  She was pretty proud of herself and so were we. 

In the end, not much has changed for daddy as he is still stuck with the double jogger but I run hands free!!  That only took me six and half years to achieve.  Now let's see how long it takes the twins to ride their bikes.  For some reason, I bet Lila will be pedaling beside us next year.  Only time will tell.
