Svea -10/22/2020

Svea ate two servings of blueberry bagel and ate peaches for breakfast.  For lunch she ate half of hamburger and sausage pizza, with whole wheat pizza crust, tomato sauce, peppers, pineapple, and olives.  She also ate half of her pineapple on the side.   

These first two pictures are left over from yesterday afternoon.  Svea said, "I can do it without any hands." Second picture: Svea was on the igloo and initially she was trying to get Miles to grab her toes.  He didn't care about that and he was just touching her gently. 

Next picture:  I'm impressed with how much time and detail Svea will put into her art.  I took this picture right after she was just getting started and she said to Nora; "Hey Nora look, I'm making outer space." Nora said, "It looks like a rock hit a spaceship."  Then later Nora was showing me how well Svea was drawing and wanted me to look at Svea's paper.  Nora said, "Svea builded this tree by herself."  :)

Last picture:  We started a segment today - and we're gonna do it every Thursday morning going forward - and we're calling it "Science with Lauralea."  Today Lauralea did two different "experiments" that were fun and simple and perfect for this age group.  (Designed for Preschool Age)  We're gonna let Svea participate as long as she listens to our instructions.  She did good today.  This experiment was water in a bowl, add pepper to the bowl, and trying to make a "trail" across the bowl.  Not happening.  Put Dish soap on your index finger then make a trail across the bowl and the pepper "runs" from the soap and there's your trail!

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...
