Svea - 7/16/2019

Svea ate whole wheat English muffin and dried plums for breakfast.  For lunch she ate bite of chicken, ate brown rice, bite of stir fry vegetables, and bites of oranges.

First picture: When I first noticed Svea playing with the doll she was laying beside it and it was so cute.  When I was walking by to get the camera she was saying, "night night."  Of course shortly after that she was standing on the doll's head.  Haha!  (Better to experiment with the dolls than the real thing!!)  Later, she was playing with the dolls again and she was saying, "night night, night night" over and over and over.

Next picture:  If you look close you'll see that Svea has a "pancake" hanging out of her mouth.  And of course that's what Callahan is reaching for!!  Svea likes the baby, but she's inclined to lean over on his belly, touch his face, or lay on him like she does with Melvin!!  Haha!!  So she hears the word "gentle" frequently and she does pretty well listening to me.  Or I help her learn to listen.  :)

Last picture: Svea playing with the food toys.  She stayed busy all morning as usual.  Linnea is not here today.  (Linnea is having a "Mommy day" on her Birthday.)  I have no idea if Svea even noticed that Linnea is absent!  Ha!  She obviously cannot verbalize it and I didn't pick up any clues from her behavior.

Svea - 08/18/2022

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...
