Svea - 12/23/2020

Svea ate two servings of French toast and ate two servings of strawberries for breakfast.  For lunch she ate half of Whole 30 Chili with meat, tomatoes, sweet potatoes, peppers, and lots of spices.  She ate no whole wheat dinner roll and ate a large serving of tropical fruit.   

A couple of cute verbal expressions from Svea this morning:  "Gary, my kind of shy from Santa."  SO cute!!  Later she was pointing to her hair beside her ear and she said, "Gary, I got bangs right here."  :)

Here's a couple of pictures of Svea doing some Art Work and working hard at it.  The first one is a little bag she decorated yesterday and in the second picture she's just beginning to decorate her Christmas Tree.  

Wednesday morning "Science with Lauralea" before Breakfast.  :)  Two experiments this morning: Christmas Lava Lamps and Making Slime.  (You can see the Lava lamps and read about them in Avi's Blog.)  So this next picture is adding and stirring the ingredients for Slime:  Water, Elmers Glue, Red (We chose red for Christmas) Food Coloring, tiny beads or glitter, and Liquid Starch.  (We're sending some home with the children and it's on their cubby.  PLEASE NOTE THE LIQUID STARCH - THEY SHOULD NOT PUT THIS IN THEIR MOUTH!)  Nora said, "I know all about this stuff!"  LOL!!  Of course you do.  Last picture;  Lauralea was "kneading it."  She told the kids what she was doing and Nora thought Lauralea said she was "eating it."  Hahaha!  They all had fun playing with their slime and watching the Lava Lamps.  I added more Alka-Seltzer at Breakfast and Lunch to activate our lamps!!  :)

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...
