Nora - 7/29/2019

Nora ate half of bran cereal and half of raisins for breakfast.  For lunch she ate chicken, bite of whole wheat pita bread, two servings of cucumbers, ate avocado, and two servings of pears.

Nora and Atley were on the mattress and Nora was the "doctor."  She was wanting to do a checkup on Atley, but Atley wasn't really cooperating and she rolled over on her side.  That frustrated Nora and she flopped down on the mattress in a major dramatic maneuver and laid there sucking her thumb.  Avi was monitoring the activity of course and she yelled in a disgusted voice, "NORA!! Doctors do NOT lay down!!"  Haha!  I roared!!

I had to be downtown to sign some papers at 9:00 this morning and Lauralea covered for me.  I took this first picture as soon as I got back and set up this game of "Sequence."  Nora got tired of it eventually and said, "I'm done."  Atley followed up a short time later, "I'm done."  I told Avi she may as well quit and she said, "Why?"  Haha!  "Have you noticed everyone else is gone?"

Last pictures: We were not outside too long this morning, but I wanted to get a picture of the airplane toy in today's blog!  They were loving it and having a blast!  Avi is in the driver's seat (now there's a shocker), Svea is in the seat directly behind Avilene, and Nora and Atley are on the teeter-totter seats. Nora didn't realize it was gonna move and she freaked out at first.  So if you look at the last picture you can see what Nora initially did; ran back from it and watched from a distance!!  The company forgot to pack a "steering wheel" so I called them this morning and it's on the way.  (I just cut a wooden circle for a temporary steering wheel!  Ha!)

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...
