Svea - 11/20/2019

Svea had no whole wheat toast and ate grapes for breakfast.  (I wasn't sure they were coming for breakfast and I didn't have enough frozen mangoes thawed out!)  For lunch she ate a very large serving of ground beef with marinara sauce on whole wheat spaghetti noodles, no cauliflower, and ate a large serving of fruit salad.

This first picture is left over from yesterday afternoon.  She was singing to her baby, "rock the baby, rock the baby, rock the baby" while rocking in the chair.  Next picture: Svea used her words very well to tell me she wanted help with this stack of books.  (I love how she always makes a stack!) She was pointing at her stack on the floor; "books, books, books."  I said, "Yup that's a lot of books."  She said, "Help help help."  Ok, where do you want me to put them.  She pointed at the couch and said, "couch couch."  So I did and she immediately said, "Thank you."  More words; Later she was watching me teach Cal "gentle touches, gentle touches" when interacting with Miles.  Svea started touching Cal's arm saying, "gentle touches, gentle touches."

Next two pictures; Well Linnea is back today after being gone since Thursday and these two had lots of fun.  They were playing with the shapes and shape sorters, but as the picture illustrates it is way more fun just being silly and laughing together.  They were both doing what Svea is doing, but never at the same time.  Ha!  Last picture: And it's always fun to race down the hall to Cal's room when he wakes up from a nap.

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...
