Nora - 9/1/2017

Nora ate several bites of malt-o-meal cereal and plums for breakfast.  For lunch she ate most of meat from beef "kabobs."  She ate all her brown rice, zucchini, red peppers, broccoli, and pineapple.

This first picture is from yesterday afternoon when Riley and Kenzie were combing all the Daycare Kid's hair!  I love Nora's cute little expression in the first picture.  She cracks me up.  If you look closely she has her right index finger poking between 2 of her toes.  In typical Nora fashion!!  Ha!! What a little peanut!  I sure love having her at Little Treasures and she's a great fit here!!  She's very social and ALL the kids love her!  (This was Kenzie combing her hair.)

In this 2nd picture Avi and Hudson were putting the doll blankets over their heads and jumping on the mattress.  Avi fell on Atley 2 or 3 times and Atley just laughed uproariously like it was the funniest thing ever!!  What a goof.  Nora was a bit more sheltered behind Atley, but she was still watching what Avi and Hudson were doing and was amused by the entertainment.  :)

I LOVE these last 2 pictures!  Nora has it figured out how to go the opposite direction when she runs into something.  It didn't take her long to figure out (through experimentation) that she could just swap ends (walk to the other end of the toy) and push the opposite direction.  This is a perfect example why I believe in the Wonder and Wisdom of Play for young children.  Think about what she is learning here through play and exploration.  Nice job of solving the problem Nora and you did it all on your own!!

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 oatmeal and apple bites for breakfast.  For lunch she ate a large serving of hamburger stew with carrots, potatoes, and green beans.  She ate a bite or two of dinner roll and ate apricots. These first two pictures are from yesterday afternoon and the first picture has Riley feeding Nora cottage cheese for snack.  For the 2nd picture Kenzie and Riley wanted to take pictures of me reading to the kids.  (Hudson had left by this time.)  They took several pictures with my phone and I thought they did a good job.  :) All the kids know I use two pillows when I sit on the couch!  This morning I said, "Ok everyone, it's Story Time."  Nora picks up both pillows off the floor and takes them to the couch.  All the kids do that; whoever finds them, but this is the first time I've seen Nora do it!  :)  Shortly before that Hudson had apparently taken something and Nora was yelling at him.  Hudson said, "Hmmm... Nora didn't li...
