Nora - 5/11/2017

Nora ate some toasted rye bread and ate a couple bites of dried plums for breakfast.  Her breakfast was kind of small so I wasn't surprised when she drank 5 oz at 10:30.  For lunch she had a couple bites of pulled pork sandwich, no peas, and a few bites of cantaloupe.  Lauralea is frequently leaving for work while the kids are eating breakfast.  And she always gives everyone a love goodbye.  She hugged Avi, who then pointed at Hudson and said, "Bubba."  (Ok, it's Bubba's turn.)  She hugged Hudson, who then pointed at Nora and said, "Nora."  (Ok, it's Nora's turn.)  It was so cute!!  Just more of those routines than I always talk about!  They (routines) are so important to the children as it builds trust and security and makes them feel safe!

Nora was sitting in front of her mirror, about 10 inches away, doing her loud "fake" laughs and squeals!!  (They are not totally fake, but you know what I mean! They just sound that way to me!! Ha!)  She looked just like she did in the picture in yesterday's Blog and watched her herself yell over and over.  That cracked me up!

Well it was nice to have our resident entertainer perform for the kids today.  Reid asked me yesterday if he could bring his "kendama" to Daycare today.  What?!?!  After 10 attempts to understand what the heck he was talking about I had to refer to Google for the answer!!  (That's a hint just in case you too have no idea!!  Haha!)  I took the picture below as he dazzled an appreciative crowd!!  :)

Nora had been trying to crawl between the Big Panda bear and the wall (see picture below) and it was kind of narrow and she was getting stuck - yelling, muttering, and causing a commotion.  Avi raced over there to see what the heck was the problem with her friend Nora!  Sweet little girls!!  :)  I think I heard Nora tell Avilene; "That Gary person just keeps taking pictures and laughing at me!"

Nora ate oatmeal and two servings of baked cinnamon apples for breakfast. For lunch she ate a large serving of hamburger stew with meat, carrots, green beans, tomatoes, potatoes, and onions. She ate whole wheat dinner roll and two servings of fruit cocktail.    Just in case anyone was wondering how many; this is the last of 836 Blogs for our sweet Nora. It's been such a joy for me to have Nora in my Program for all this time and I'm also thankful when she returned during the crazy covid time. I'm glad Miles will be here for another year which means I get to see Nora occasionally. I sure love all my Hansen family!! You guys are awesome. Here's a classic Nora comment from yesterday. The 3 oldest girls were at the table doing some Art. There was a clean piece of paper which had some paint or marker on the very top of it. And now no one will use it as they all consider it "ruined!!" Haha. Who did this? The denial was 100%. Nora said, "Gary, we all didn't...

Breakfast: French toast and plums. Avi said, "Not eating!" Ha. Ok, then Atley and Nora both followed suit! "Not eating!" Ha. I bet you guys will eat a big lunch and they did. Nora ate two servings of pulled pork, ate whole wheat toast, ate peas, and three servings of cantaloupe.    Nora; "I'm SO excited to start Kindergarten!!" Boy I've been hearing that phrase a lot lately and it is exciting!! What are you most excited about? Nora said, "I get to wear my mask." LOL That was SO cute. I laughed so hard. We could use her for a poster encouraging people to wear masks!! First picture; Yup, Nora's back in the house!! First things first; Get these fellas all lined up, organized, and ready to go!! Ha. She'd been here for maybe 5 minutes! Next picture: Nora said; "Gary! You got new markers!!" And that's true. So here's what I've finally  (ha - now that I'm close to retiring) learned about buying the large boxes o...

Nora ate blueberry bagel and two servings of grapes for breakfast. For lunch she ate shrimp, two servings of brown rice in berry juice, ate broccoli, and marion black berries.  At the meal table Nora saw a picture of Svea in the early years (ha) and said, "Look at you Svea! You were SO cute." Svea asked Nora, "Did you like me when I was that age?" What a super sweet conversation from both sides. Love it so much! This is kind of random, but in case anyone was wondering; I stopped doing the Spanish color words for the kids because - after listening to Alexa and Siri - I wasn't getting them correct and I didn't want the kids to have to unlearn and then relearn at Paxon. :)  First picture; Nora was building a tower with these little wooden blocks and you can see the "source of her supply." That would be Miles' hand. Haha. Later when Nora was done here Atley knocked this tower over and Nora said, "I wanted to knock it over." But Nora actua...
