Kenzie ate a bite of her blueberries and about half of her cinnamon raisin English muffins at breakfast.  At lunch she ate seconds on turkey sandwich and all of her fresh pineapple (the kiwi were still too hard) and green beans.  

Kenzie saw that it was raining out and immediately wanted to switch the weather wheel from cloudy to rainy.  She also announce to all of the kiddos that we "won't be able to go outside because it's raining.  

Kenzie was in "help her friends" mode, which was very sweet.  Riley was wanting the toys that she was playing with so she went over to the toy shelf and found the exact toys and gave her them.  She also helped Nora when she was trying to get Rae's toys, as well as several others.  It was like she was in problem solving mode.  Another thing she did great was be a good example for several of the other kiddos on how to play with Cooper without getting nose to nose with him.  Granted, she doesn't always do that well, but today she really was.  

Kenzie and Emily were talking to each other about "graduating" while they were playing today.  Emily told Kenzie she "can't go to my house when I graduate".  Kenzie then told her "I'm not going to graduate for a while!" to which Emily disagreed with emphatically, leading to quite the argument (but only verbal bantering).  

She and Emily were sitting in the big yellowish chair and Kenzie announced that they were "riding in my vehicle".  It just cracked me up that it wasn't a 'car' or 'truck'.

When we switched to the back room, Kenzie immediately asked me to help her build an airplane.  Here is what we came up with.  It wasn't real representative, but it was good enough to appease her and that was all that mattered!
