Nora - 06/17/2021

Nora ate blueberry waffle and two servings of fruit salad for breakfast. For lunch she ate ground turkey, half of whole wheat tortillas, "one tiny bite" (her words) of sweet potatoes, and ate cherries. 

Nora is SO proud of the fact she can now open the storm door to get into the house from the Daycare yard. She had to show Kelsey too. Nora told me; "It feels SO good opening the door!" Isn't that the sweetest. I love how she expresses her feelings. She's been trying to open that door for a long time. 

These first two pictures are leftover from yesterday afternoon. Svea and Nora were laughing, acting goofy, and basically having a blast. Svea said, "Gary! I gotta go potty! Nora laughing makes me go potty!!" Haha. Second picture: This puzzle is probably the most challenging one I have and Nora is getting very confident with them. She even WANTS me to take a picture. Haha!! She said, "Hey Gary! Take my picture because I'm getting lots of matches." Nora and Svea use the same term - "matches" - with the puzzles. Just like they use when playing the Matching Games.

Last picture: So this was the BIG event at Little Treasures this morning!! What do you think the kids are looking at in the window well!?! Yup, you're right. One of the little bunnies fell in!! Lauralea was in this downstairs room and heard a "thump" and then frantic scratching as it tried to get out. The bunny was lucky someone heard it fall. (This is the second time it's happened; the first time the bunny was not this lucky.) So I moved the top grate, climbed down with gloves and towel, grabbed the little fella, lifted him up and released him in the yard; then we watched him run faster than he'd ever ran before!  Haha. And of course the kids loved watching the entire show.

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...
