Svea - 9/29/2020

Svea ate no raisin cinnamon English muffin and ate grapes for breakfast.  For lunch she ate chicken, ate brown rice, a large serving of broccoli, and bites of pineapple.  Nora had been yapping at Svea (Svea's table partner to her right) about not having a bite of her English muffin.  Nora was expounding eloquently about the muffin and how "it's good for you and healthy for your body."  Of course Nora only had ONE bite so I took a picture of it and put it in Nora's Blog.  :)

Svea was talking to Nora and she said, "No one can get our stuff."  Nora said, "I know that."  Haha.  They were essentially trying to guard their stuff from Miles and Callahan.  Svea looked at Miles and said, "Try to find your own stuff Miles."  :)

First picture:  (I love this dress with the hood.)  Miles was about to make his move for the food toys.  :)  Svea likes to get the food toys, take them to the couch, set them down, and go get some more.  She's a classic little "stockpiler."  Kids this age think they can set something down and it remains their toy even if they wander off.  (See The Toddler's Creed)  I showed her better places to lay out her food toys where they are not as likely to be stolen and more easy to defend!!  :)

This next picture made me laugh.  Nora and Svea worked hard to make it dark in their cave/igloo.  Then Nora got a silly look on her face and said, "How are we gonna get in there?"  She immediately knew the answer; "You go first Svea."  Haha.  And you can see Svea trying to go in without wrecking their work. Following picture; Watching self in mirror and grinning when she knew I was taking a picture.  Last picture;  One of the velcro food toys is stuck to her sock.  :)

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...
