Nora - 12/14/2018

Nora ate oatmeal and baked cinnamon apples for breakfast.  For lunch she ate bites of hamburger stew with meat, carrots, green beans, and tomatoes.  Also, bites of whole wheat dinner roll and she ate a large serving of apricots.  At breakfast Avi pointed accusingly at Nora and said, "Nora's eating with her hands!!"  Like it was the worst thing she'd ever witnessed!!  Totally ignoring the fact that earlier she'd been doing the exact same thing!!  Later, Nora returned the favor; "Avi put toy in her mouth!!"  Same thing; Earlier I'd asked Nora to take the legos out of her mouth!  LOL!!  You kids crack me up!  You're all experts on what everyone else is doing wrong!!  :)

Nora was whimpering and crying and came running to me: "Linnea grabbed my shirt Gary!"  Haha! Oh my, I certainly hope you're ok!!  This was repeated about 3 or 4 times this morning and I told Nora she could simply say, "No thank you!" and run away from her!  I watched closely and it was usually happening when Nora was laying on the floor sucking her thumb and presenting herself as an easy target for Linnea to pester!!  I told her she could run much faster than Linnea.  Run Nora Run!! Here's a picture of Nora reading and singing "Jingle Bells."  :)

Here are more pictures from this morning: Avi and Nora were using cookie cutters with the play dough.  Then Nora apparently heard me say to Svea; "I'm gonna put you on the floor and go get you some clean clothes" because Nora sprinted for the gate and said, "I'M DONE GARY!!"  Haha!  Nothing interests Nora more than the babies!!  Especially a baby with nothing on but a diaper!  It wasn't much later and Linnea needed a complete change of clothes too!  So Nora was a happy camper once again and those were the highlights of her morning!!  Haha!!

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...
