Nora - 07/13/2021

Nora ate bites of breakfast: toasted whole wheat English muffin and dried plums. For lunch she ate chicken, no brown rice, ate broccoli, and ate mandarin oranges. 

First picture: We have several fans set up because our central air is having issues and it's a hard time to get someone here for a service call. So in the interim we have fans and the kids have been taking advantage to create a couple of new games. Flying these pieces of paper around kept their attention for a long time. Ha. Next picture: I got a kick out of watching where Svea set up her chair and paper to work on some art; snuggled up close to Nora's spot. Nora is totally fine with this and she frequently offers comments, advice, and basic observations of Svea's paper. :)

Next picture: Avi was working on a picture for Nora, or maybe she was just helping Nora with her picture. I could never figure out exactly what they were doing. Haha. However, here's what I do know: I'd asked Nora to not suck her thumb in the Preschool Room and Nora is trying to figure out what to do with her hands while watching Avi. :) Avi took a quick break to pick her nose and Nora yelled, "Avi!! Please do NOT put your boogie fingers on my paper!!" Haha.

Last picture: Nora has been doing so good with her front flips and working hard on them. Avi joined her and added another dimension to the routine!! Warmups!! Before EVERY jump and flip. Haha. So here's Nora warming up. Check out her right elbow in the picture; watching that made my elbow start hurting.

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...
