Svea - 09/22/2021

Svea ate whole wheat toast and two servings of mangoes for breakfast. For lunch she ate most of ground beef with marinara sauce on whole wheat spaghetti noodles, ate riced cauliflower, and ate fruit salad.

Cal was pointing at the smoke alarm and said, "Can we do fireworks!?! Can we do fireworks!?! I want to do it! I want to do it!" Haha. Yes we can do a fire drill. :) And we did. 

Yesterday Svea was laying face down on the slide outside and trying to belly-crawl up the slide. And of course that was not working. She finally said, "It's NOT no use!" (There's the ole' double negative!) That really made me laugh; it was so cute. Callahan was already on the climber and he reached down and was able to assist in pulling her up. Thanks Cal!!

Svea was trying to coax Cal into wearing a tutu and dancing with her. (He did yesterday, but wasn't really interested today!) Svea said, "Cal!! If you don't wear this tutu you can NOT get up on stage!!" Then she added this doozy; "You will NOT be famous!" Cal said, "I don't want to be famous." LOL!! 

I've got 2 pictures left over from yesterday afternoon that I'm gonna use today. This morning the kids played with the building blocks, food toys, we read books, did some songs and singing, and pestered Lauralea whenever we had the chance!! First picture; I posted a similar picture on Monday - from Friday -when Miles was pulling these two in the wagon and it always amuses me when the youngest it doing all the work. And Svea was moaning about him going "too slow" on Friday as well!! Yesterday she said, "Miles!! Go faster!! He's going slower than he did yesterday!!" Hahaha.

We did go for a walk yesterday afternoon over to the field by Meadow Hill School, but Svea had to go potty so we didn't stay long. Next picture: Svea found a rock someone had painted and the kids were examining the awesome rock. :) Last picture: Laying on the blue balance beam. She said, "Hey Gary! do you like this?!?" Yes I do, especially because you made it all yourself.

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...
