Nora - 8/21/2019

Nora ate French toast and two servings of strawberries for breakfast.  For lunch she ate whole 30 chili with meat, peppers, tomatoes, sweet potatoes, and tomato sauce.  (And lots of good spices!!) The kids are really liking this meal and it's one of Lauralea and my favorites!!   She also had a bite of whole wheat dinner roll and two servings of tropical fruit.

This first picture is left over from yesterday afternoon and Nora was putting legos flowers on the end of her fingers.  Four on each hand.  "Look what I'm doing Gary."  In the Second picture Nora had asked to play with the tape measure.  I ordered some fabric tape measures for the kids to play with. Besides just having fun with them it can also help them with number recognition.  Avi had one stretched out as far as it could go - past the last number - and the tape is bare for three or four inches.  Avi said to Nora, "When it doesn't go any longer it has no numbers Nora.  Does that make any sense?"

Next picture: Well I gotta post one of Nora doing one of her favorite activities.  We've had lots of kids that loved babies and dolls, but probably not any more than Nora does.  You rank right at the top in that department Nora!!

Last picture: Avi coaxed Nora into joining her doing some cutting with scissors.  Nora worked at it for maybe a minute and quickly discovered it's way easier and faster to just rip and tear the paper.  Haha!  She saw/heard me laughing and she started grinning too!!

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...
