Nora - 02/10/2021

Nora ate French toast and two servings of strawberries for breakfast.  For lunch she ate a large serving of Hearty Paleo Stew with meat, cauliflower, broccoli, carrots, sweet potatoes, tomatoes, and green beans. She ate two servings of saltines and two servings of tropical fruit.  

Yesterday afternoon the three big girls were taking turns being "Santa Claus" and passing out presents to the other two girls. They'd pretend to be asleep while Santa was laying out the presents. Avi made her point VERY clear right from the beginning; "Do NOT bring me anything pretty!!" Haha. That was awesome and so Avilene!

First thing this morning Nora told Atley they could play the "Charades" game at Nora's house tonight. Then Nora proceeded to explain the game in amazing detail very accurately. I was impressed. I asked her who taught her how to play the game. She insisted over and over that "No one did," but somehow she's always known how to play. "I just know how!" Apparently she was just born with that skill in her DNA. :)

Here are some pictures from Nora's morning: She was finishing an airplane pictrue she'd started coloring yesterday. Second picture: When we get something out of the freezer we'll frequently ask the kids if they want to feel something cold. Lately Nora has been lifting up her shirt to feel it on her bare belly. That's a very brave move Nora! I LOVE her expression! So fun.

Next picture: Hiding in the fort she and Svea built. The two little boys were still in their highchairs eating breakfast so the girls had a few minutes to build this and play before trouble arrived. :) Last picture: Doing some more art with the paints. We did sign language before Story Time and reviewed the 4 colors they know in Spanish. And I'm gonna introduce another color this week. We're also practicing raising our hands instead of all talking at the same time. We'll be discussing this in our Parent/Provider meeting.
