Nora - 3/19/2018

Nora ate most of bran cereal and bites of raisins for breakfast.  For lunch she ate chicken, no whole wheat pita bread, ate salad with lettuce, carrots, tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, olives, and ranch dressing.  She ate avocado and two servings of pears.  She ate a lot of food for lunch!  :)  Atley was done first at lunch ("I'm done, I'm done!!") and immediately Avi and Nora started saying, "I'm done!" between bites!!  Ha!  And Nora was mad because I was hesitating to wash her; "you are still eating."  So I told her that as soon as her mouth was empty I'd wash her.  So she showed me an empty mouth when she finished.  Thank you Nora.

We did puzzles as a group to help Nora with her puzzle skills.  Avi and Atley (and Hudson when he's here) point where the puzzle piece goes and Nora gets first shot at placing it correctly.  Then Atley or Avi put it in place if Nora can't get it.  It's really cute because if Nora is struggling with the piece she just hands it to one of the other kids.  "Here, you do it!!"  :)

Here are some pictures from this morning's activities.  Nora and Atley were going off the couch head-first again!  In the first picture Atley is looking back to see if Nora is coming and then in the 2nd picture I almost missed Atley, but you can see a bit of her face; enough to know she was laughing like crazy as Nora sticks her landing!!  Haha!!  We also did some painting at Art Time.  She frequently (including today) can paint like this and never get a drop of paint on her hands or arm.  :)  In the last picture - it just seems like last week that Nora wouldn't stand up on the balance beam!  Now she's putting a blanket over her head and blindly jumping!  Haha!  Atley did it first and apparently it looked like fun because then Nora did it.  (Today was the first time for Nora.)

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...
