Nora - 7/16/2018

Nora ate several bites of breakfast: bran cereal and raisins.  For lunch she ate chicken, bite of whole wheat pita bread, ate olives, tomatoes, half of peppers, and ate pears.

First picture; As all the parents know I had this little fish (fake) tank and the kids loved it, but the light burned out and parts of it were broke (it was a Goodwill Special) so it was trash.  Hudson first, and then the rest of the kids were all asking, "Where'd the fishy go?"  My standard answer; "They all swam away!"  That seemed to satisfy everyone!  So I got a lava lamp and that's what the kids are looking at.  I like how Nora is positioned in this picture!  This is classic Nora!  In the background watching!!

Linnea is out all week so we can't wish her Happy Birthday today!!  But we did send her a birthday greeting by text with a picture of all the kids at the breakfast table.  And they sent us a picture of Linnea and a some birthday cupcakes from yesterday!!  The kids loved the picture!!

It was SO cute when Svea saw Nora this morning!  Even though Nora wasn't focused on her (yet) Svea got a huge grin when she spotted Nora.  Man that was cute!  So I'm posting the following picture that might explain part of their love for each other!  As soon as Nora saw me feeding Svea she got a doll and carried it around, then lay it beside Svea on the floor.  Then she laid down as well.  She was totally content to lay (wrapped in a blanket) beside Svea for the longest time!!

We played outside this morning and the three oldest kids were all about the bugs - just like they are every day!!  Nora, for the most part, couldn't care less about the bugs.  But she sure started squealing when we got out the bubbles!  :)  I love her laugh and chuckles!  She really didn't want to catch a bubble; she just likes the process of squealing, laughing, and running.  I like the picture below; the bubbles are behind you 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...
