Svea - 3/25/2019

Svea ate whole grain Chex cereal and ate peaches for breakfast.  For lunch she ate bites of ground beef mixed with avocado, some tomatoes, and ate some fruit salad.

This first picture was taken last Friday and the kids were circling the "newbie" and checking him out!!  Isn't that cute!  Speaking of Gideon I was quickly reminded how I need to protect the newest and smallest infant when other babies are around!!  I was changing Linnea and I looked over and Svea was standing on Gideon - on his tummy.  He didn't care and wasn't making a sound!!  He's a tuff little fella, didn't cry, and made Grandpa proud!!  Haha!  However, with Baby Callahan starting on this Friday it was a GREAT reminder!!  Svea was touching the wall to balance and just standing there looking down at him.  At that age another child is no different than another toy!!  I got kind of spoiled with Linnea because she was the gentlest one ever with Svea!!

I put Gideon in Svea's crib for his nap this morning - because it's set up darker in there and I was doing an experiment to show his Mommy and Daddy.  And just in case you're curious it was a successful experiment - this time anyhow!!  :)  So Avilene noticed where I put Gideon of course and asked, "So is Svea sleeping on a nap mat now!?!"  She's been so curious about when Svea's moving to a nap mat; especially since Linnea just moved to a nap mat!!

Morning pictures of Svea;  Reading beside Linnea.  Second picture; I don't know who put the hat on Svea, but she was kind of bouncing up and down on the blocks.  Last picture; Svea was showing some caution and being very careful up here on the balance beam.  I like cautious daredevils!!  :)

Svea ate toasted whole wheat English muffin and three servings of mandarin oranges for breakfast. For lunch she ate half of her ground beef, no whole wheat elbow noodles, no peas, and ate bites of applesauce. First picture: Svea is just getting started on coloring this picture, but she was actually too busy watching Nora color and studying Nora's picture. Then, just as I was taking the picture, Svea's marker rolled off the table and Svea managed to catch it before it hit the floor. She's explaining to Nora how such an amazing feat is even possible!! Haha! Nice catch Svea. Next picture: The girls are watching a "Chicken Dance" video and dancing/singing along with it. The boys, meanwhile, are marching to their own drum and Miles is chanting, "I fart, Pee Yew! I fart, Pee Yew! I fart, Pee Yew!!" And that's pretty much how classy us males are - speaking generally of course!! Except for Me and the Daycare Dads!! Haha. Last picture: More dancing!! This tim...

Svea ate kix cereal and mixed fruit for breakfast.  For lunch she ate ground turkey, no whole wheat hamburger bun, ate tomato, avocado, and three or four cherries.  At breakfast Svea started saying, "My turn to talk. My turn to talk."  Which is what the big girls say at the table; all talking and saying it at the same time. Ha.  At lunch I put mustard on my ground turkey and I told Avi you can't be a wuss and eat mustard.  Svea said, "That's right Gary."  Haha. Here's what Svea frequently says to Lauralea: "Can you swing me Lauralea?!?"  Or, "Swing me Lauralea, swing me!?!"  And here's what she's asking: Swing me back and forth and throw me on the mattress.  :) Today was toy exchange Monday and Svea was very busy all morning.  I think these pictures kind of capture some of her morning and her busyness.  Playing with the jingle bells, food toys, and in the third picture she's trying to put the cab of the legos truck on ...

Svea ate just a couple bites of breakfast: waffle and grapes.  For lunch she ate chicken, whole wheat tortilla, two servings of corn, and ate baked cinnamon apples. This first picture is left over from yesterday afternoon.  I took this picture because I like to catch Svea actually putting the puzzles together.  Good work Svea.  Second picture: More of the same this morning; playing with her babies. Next picture: Nora spends LOTS of time everyday dancing in front of the mirror.  During the time she went to her Preschool I never saw anyone continue this activity.  Well now she's back and here she is again.  Haha.  (Nora Boyle was the last one I remember doing this too!!  It's a "Nora thing.") Today Svea joined them as well.  So cute. Next picture: Svea was at the gate yelling to Avi and Atley (who were in the Preschool Room) and she was saying, "Look at me guys, look at me guys."  Then she started walking across the room...
