Svea - 12/08/2021

The boys like to mix their strawberries and French toast together and this morning Svea joined them! She ate two large servings of French toast and strawberries. For lunch she ate most of her serving of Whole 30 Chili with meat, peppers, tomatoes, tomato sauce, sweet potatoes, and spices. She ate whole wheat dinner roll and bites of mango/pineapple.

I told Svea this morning that she had scratches on her forehead. She said, "Melvin scratched me." I asked, "Why do you think he scratched you?" She said, "I don't want to tell you." Haha. First picture: This was the first activity Svea chose in the Preschool Room. Doing some tracing with erasable markers.

Next picture; Miles asked Svea to hook his tractor up to his trailer. I got this picture at the very end of her helping him and he's ready to take off. I always encourage them to ask their peers for help and Svea loves to be a helper. Following picture: Svea helping Miles again!! :) She was hanging her horses upside-down on the faucet and he wanted her to do the same with one of his horses. So she did. Love that proud smile Svea. You may have to zoom in on the picture to see the upside-down horse.

Next picture: The boys had been running back and forth across the room and Svea joined them. I'll call it "running with the boys." Sometimes safer than "running with the bulls," but not always. Haha. Sorry, bad Dad joke, but I made myself laugh. Last picture: So Cal and Svea were washing themselves in the sinks. (I teach life-skills here!!) And of course it's easy to guess what Miles is yelling; "Me sink! Me sink! Me sink!" Then two minutes later Svea and Cal were done at the sink and moved on to something else. Miles moved on as well immediately forgetting how badly he wanted a sink!!  :)

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...
