Avi - 5/15/2017

Avilene ate kix cereal and mixed fruit for breakfast.  For lunch she ate half of pork roast, ate half of crackers, ate most of carrots, and ate her cherries.  She was mimicking what Sophie was saying at lunch, "More crackers, more crackers."  (As she's sitting with a cracker in each hand.  Haha!)

I have a note leftover from last week.  We were playing outside and I was showing the kids a big (not too big, but probably more than an inch long.) ugly beetle on the patio.  Sophie didn't like it and was kind of freaking out (staring to scream), Reid said, "kill it already!!" and Avilene went over to look at it and slightly pushed on it's head.  Cracked me up.

We did a toy, book, and puzzle exchange this weekend and Avilene was busy from the moment she entered the Play Room!!  I like this first picture how she's checking out the back side of the pop-up toys; "how are these things assembled and how do they work!?!"  In the 2nd picture Sophie said, "I'm popping these up for Avi to push down."

Avi was running to the mirror, laughing at herself, then running off.  She did it 3 or 4 times and I managed to get a picture!  Little cutie.

We read lots of books and also did some painting at Art Time.  They started with a brush, but quickly switched to just using their hands.  (By the way, Sophie and Avilene are the only 2 kids here today - until the Cline girls come after school.)  Sophie was also putting on some tutus and wanting Avilene and I to watch her dance.  She said, "Just watch....and then you can clap when I bow."  Haha!
