Svea - 10/14/2019

Svea ate whole wheat Chex cereal and peaches for breakfast.  For lunch she ate ground beef mixed with avocado, no whole wheat hamburger bun, bites of tomato, and no oranges.

I have a note left over from Friday afternoon!  Nora was asking for help with getting her jacket zipped up.  Everyone was busy getting their own stuff on, I was helping Callahan get bundled up, so Nora asked, "Can you help me Svea!?!  Can you help me Svea!?!"  That totally hit my funny bone.  Nora doesn't want to "waste" too much energy putting on her own things when someone is nearby that can potentially help her!!  And surely Svea should be able to help her!!  Haha!

Here are some pictures from Svea's morning at Little Treasures.  She was trying to make a step/stool so she could see what I was doing on the changing table.  Then the block arrangement kind of took on a life of it's own.  :)  Following picture; Several times this morning Svea was building with the legos. She's pretty good at manipulating the legos pieces.  Good small motor skills.

Next picture:  Svea went to the cozy corner three or four times this morning to read some books.  I love how much she enjoys doing this.  Last picture;  Did I just mention "small motor skills?!?" Yes, I thought so.  She did this page full of stickers entirely on her own.  I've had kids much older than her struggle to get the stickers off the page and onto their own paper.  We all have areas of strength and areas of struggle!!  Good work Svea.  She was back to the cozy corner after Art time and I asked her to hold her paper so I could take a picture.  And she has a "legos flower" in her mouth in case someone was wondering!  :)

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...
