Svea - 01/11/2021

Svea ate a large serving of kix cereal and ate two servings of fruit cocktail for breakfast.  For lunch she ate ground turkey, no toasted sandwich thin, ate avocado, tomato, and cherries.  

I had a super good relaxing time in Louisiana.  So fun to hang out with Grandson Gideon and I spent my time playing with him, visiting with my family, walking, and reading.  They live in the country so it was very easy to isolate and hide from the dreaded virus.  :)  I must mention this was the first time I've been to an area devastated by hurricane and it's pretty much indescribable.  Even this many months after Hurricane Laura.  It was precious to return home and see the kiddos this morning!!  So fun after a few days gone!!

First picture;  This was still before breakfast and I took this after she'd calmed down and wanted me to snuggle her.  I told her she was wearing a beautiful dress and she said, "this is my party dress."  I love this dress. Maybe because it looks "old fashioned" to me.  :)  After breakfast I was snuggling her and she said, "Can you snuggle me some more?"  That was cute because I hadn't moved or said I needed to do anything else. Then she just randomly said, "Is this where the boat tips over?"  What!?!  I've NO idea what you're talking about!!  Then I realized "Frozen II" was still playing in the background and she'd been listening to it.  Haha.  

Next picture:  Svea had climbed up here to watch while I changed Cal's poopy diaper.  She said, "That's yucky!!"  Then she asked him, "Was that funny Cal!?!"  Haha.  She obviously thought it was funny.  Following picture;  Svea was doing some work at the art table and she worked so hard and filled both sides of a piece of paper.  Notice how she lined up some stickers along the edge of the table.  That's how I put tape on there for her, but this is the first time I've seen her do it.  

Next picture:  Svea had some keys and she and Atley were trying to shove them in a couple of holes on the changing table.  Last picture:  Miles went over to where Svea was using cheese and bologna as window clings!!  Haha.  It works best after someone has put them in their mouth and the food is damp.  (I didn't tell them why it worked so well!! ~ Haha!)  Miles was considering climbing up there and taking them off (he told me that - not), but he knew that would be living too dangerously!!  Svea would not be happy!!  :)

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...
