Nora - 04/21/2021

Nora ate French toast and three servings of strawberries for breakfast. For lunch she ate a large serving of Whole 30 Chili with meat, peppers, tomatoes, sweet potatoes, tomato sauce, and with delicious seasonings. She ate bites of whole wheat dinner roll and ate tropical fruit. 

Meal times are always busy and even though I'm only a few feet away if I'm in the kitchen I frequently can NOT tell their voices apart. "I want more!" Who said that? The standard answer is; "I did!" :) That is NOT helpful!! Today as I was putting food on their Lunch plates someone asked, "What are we having for lunch?!?" I said, "Ask Avi; she will know!" The Problem; Apparently it was Avi who asked the question!! Haha. That sure made me laugh! Avi didn't really see any humor in it (which made it funnier of course) until she heard me talking into my "notes" app for Blog Time and she was grinning big time. I thought for sure it was Nora asking the question!

First picture: From yesterday afternoon. Nora was thrilled. Haha. Second picture: This was the first thing they did this morning; ask for the big blanket to make a "cave." Miles and Nora were already in the cave and Atley was busy blocking off all daylight. :)

Next picture: The kids had fun with some new stickers I got. Eyes, hair, nose, lips. And then as you can see they colored their faces and dressed them up pretty good. I think they're very interesting!! They also did another paper that was all food stickers which they got a big kick out of. Last picture: Wow, Atley and Nora snuggling for a few minutes!! Haha. That's not that usual lately. They are still good friends, but this is not how they've been playing recently.

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...
