Svea - 9/28/2020

Svea ate whole grain Chex cereal and two servings of peaches for breakfast.  For lunch she ate most of refried beans with hamburger and shredded cheese spread on top.  She ate no corn tortilla and ate mandarin oranges.  

Ok, I'll get the Blogs back up and running!!  Our Family from Billings left yesterday and our Louisiana Family left today about Noon.  It was wonderful having everyone here and we were super super busy.  The best news; our Louisiana Family is going home to electricity after 28 days without it!!  I'm Very Thankful for that!!

This first picture is leftover from last Wednesday afternoon and I just always get a kick out of seeing the smaller kids giving rides to the bigger kids.  Svea giving Nora rides in a stroller.  

We managed to get a Toy, book, and puzzle exchange done this weekend!  Primarily done by one of our workers; Svea and Avi's big Sister.  Thanks for all your hard work Sylvie.  In the next picture Svea was squealing on Miles because he had a toy in his mouth and she was saying how "big kids don't put toys in their mouths!!"  Pretty hilarious coming from one who has excelled at that violation.  :)  Middle picture; Look at all the toys Nora and Svea are stockpiling and Svea is mostly worried about Miles stealing one of them.  Haha.  Last picture: Our new neighbors were moving all their stuff into their house this morning and that provided a window watching moment!!  I'm happy to report our new neighbors seem like wonderful people with a 2 year child.  I'm always a bit anxious about new neighbors moving in beside our Child Care Program.  When Lauralea and I had a Group Home and were licensed for 12 kids we were much more noisy than now, but we've always had great neighbors and no complaints!!

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...
