The Drawer

As I was heading over to the main building I came across these children running all over the yard.
Mr. F
 
 
They seemed a bit excited about what they had made in school.
Miss J

 
Miss P

 
Mr. W

 
Miss A hadn't made what the other kids did but she asked for a picture and who am I to say no to a request like that?

 
Now, on to the story about the drawer. We have a lot of drawers around here to help hold all the clothes these little bodies tend to go through like wildfire.
The babies fully believe the drawers were put there for their enjoyment.
Buster and Little Mr. S decided to clean out a drawer that was entirely too full for their tastes.

 
Well, Buster was intent on cleaning out the drawer. S was a little more excited by what Buster threw on the floor.

 
Little Bear was upset that Buster hadn't invited her to join in on the fun from the start.

 
Notice the red bloomers on the left? See how they are still in the air?

 
 

 
 

 
"My work here is finished." - Buster

 
 

 
"Now I can move on to the next drawer that requires my attention." - Buster

 
M was fussing until he saw the camera.

 
Baby M and Little Miss J were ecstatic to see the camera! 

 
 

 
Little Bear has spied a bear on the top shelf that she wants.

 
 
Almost got it...

 
"Whew! Got it!" - Little Bear

 
"So soft." - Little Bear

 
Next thing we know Buster has taken Little Bear's bear. She doesn't look overly happy about it.

 
Little Bear decides to do something about it.

 
But he still wouldn't give the bear back.

 
So I gave him a bear of his own to snuggle with.

 
 

 
 

 
I think he liked it. :)

Look What I Can Do!

I stopped by the malnourishment center to see how M&M was getting along.
He had some interesting news for me!
 
Here he is.
Will you tell us about your news M&M?
"Well, how about I show you instead?"- M&M
 
 
"First I stand here for a while."

 
...

 
...

 
"And then just when I have you on the edge of your seat..."

 
"... I do this. Did you see it? My right foot moved!"

 
"And then my left foot moved!"

 
"It's kind of like magic I think."

 
" 'Cause some how I end up in a different place from where I started."

 
 

 
 

 
 

 
(There was a video playing on the T.V. to the right of the picture and that is what he was looking at.)

 
"So, what do you think about that?"- M&M

 
"That was a great magic trick M&M! Maybe you could teach me that trick sometime?"- Mr. J

Another Day... And FYI

Miss J is working hard to get across the monkey bars without falling.
 
 
Will she make it???

 
Almost there...

 
"I made it!!!"

 
Hi Bam-Bam

 
There's that trademark smile!

 
Ragdoll has recently learned how to climb the stairs to the top of the slide.

 
 

 
Little Miss Personality.


"I didn't want to go down the slide!" - Ragdoll

 
Miss J says, "Watch this!"

 
WOW!

 
Mr. P wanted to try jumping too but I don't think he ever let go. ;)
 
 
Little Miss R enjoys a trip down the slide.
(Ignore the food coming out her nose. She hasn't had her palate surgery yet and there is almost always food coming out her nose. Poor thing.)

 
 Here is a fierce tiger! Can you hear him growling?

 
Miss M decided to try her hand at jumping.

 
Miss P and Miss J, best friends.

 
Miss R

 
I have no idea what was so funny... :)

 
 

 
Buster and Little Bear

 
Can you hear him yelling as loud as he can?
He isn't mad, he just likes to yell.

 
Ladybug is starting to get her feet under herself and is learning to balance now.

 
Baby S

I'm so sad about the lighting in this picture but I love Little Bear's expression here!

 
Ragdoll trying to soothe Baby E.

 
Maybe she thinks he is tired and should rest his head on the mat??
(She pushed his head down to the mat but did stop when instructed to.)

And now for the FYI part.
For those of you who don't know, I will be leaving Ruel next week and heading home.
I'm hoping there will be someone around Ruel who will take over updating the Ruel facebook page because I WILL NEED PICTURES PEOPLE!!! ;)
