Nora - 5/31/2019

Nora ate bites of oatmeal and ate her baked cinnamon apples for breakfast.  For lunch she ate two servings of hamburger stew with meat, carrots, tomatoes, and green beans.  She also ate whole wheat dinner roll and her apricots.  The three table girls were having another "discussion" about signal lights at lunch time.  The big dilemma: Which light means "go backwards?"  "Pink or Blue!?!"  :) The thing about 3 year olds arguing is they'll frequently switch their positions in the middle of it all!!

We were preparing to go outside yesterday afternoon and Nora was working at getting her own shoes on.  Avi was keeping an eye on Nora (while working on her own shoes) and said, "Other foot Nora!" That was pretty cool!  I knew she'd mastered it for herself, but that's the first time I've heard her help someone else match foot and shoe.  Thanks for helping Avi!!

First picture: This is also from outside yesterday afternoon.  Atley said she was a "police officer."  She told Nora, "I'm gonna pull you over!"  That made me laugh because she knew the terminology!!  So I decided it was from riding with her Papa!!  :)

Next picture: And this is what the "cozy corner" is all about!  Sucking her thumb and calming herself!

Last picture: Svea and Atley watching Nora feed Callahan.  In the middle of feeding Cal his bottle Avilene yelled from the bathroom that she needed help wiping.  So I asked Nora if she would take over for a couple minutes until I got back.  I took this picture on my return and this is what it looked like.  Well done Nora and thank you!!

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...
