Nora - 02/02/2021

Nora ate blueberry bagel and two servings of grapes for breakfast.  For lunch she ate shrimp, two servings of brown rice, ate stir fry vegetables, and two servings of raspberries.  Nora and Atley put all their rice, plus second servings, in raspberry juice.  "It's SO good!!" 

First picture:  Nora and Atley were reading this "I Spy" book before breakfast.  It was fun to eavesdrop on their conversation.  Atley was the "reader" and was asking Nora to search for things.  "Can you find the red doughnut?"  What!?!  I peeked over the back and it was some stacking rings shaped just like doughnuts.  Nora said, "Oh I love those!!""  Haha.  Second picture: Nora and Atley had barricaded off a little spot using one of the doll houses and car ramps. 

Next picture:  That's a big pile of soft stuff (pillows, doll blankets, stuffed animals, and dress-up clothes) on the couch. Somewhere under it all is Svea.  Nora was adding more and more.  Miles (at the top of the picture) was trying to pull pieces off. Just before this Nora was the one getting buried on the couch.  This is a favorite game.  

Last picture:  I've never tried a "tutorial" video before so this was kind of an experiment. Mostly for me because I was curious how they'd respond!! It was "Drawing a Snowman." I love the kids creating their own, but it was fun to bring in someone having more ideas as well.  Nora responded really well to this and followed along quite well.

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 oatmeal and apple bites for breakfast.  For lunch she ate a large serving of hamburger stew with carrots, potatoes, and green beans.  She ate a bite or two of dinner roll and ate apricots. These first two pictures are from yesterday afternoon and the first picture has Riley feeding Nora cottage cheese for snack.  For the 2nd picture Kenzie and Riley wanted to take pictures of me reading to the kids.  (Hudson had left by this time.)  They took several pictures with my phone and I thought they did a good job.  :) All the kids know I use two pillows when I sit on the couch!  This morning I said, "Ok everyone, it's Story Time."  Nora picks up both pillows off the floor and takes them to the couch.  All the kids do that; whoever finds them, but this is the first time I've seen Nora do it!  :)  Shortly before that Hudson had apparently taken something and Nora was yelling at him.  Hudson said, "Hmmm... Nora didn't li...
