Avi - 7/6/2017

Avi ate waffle and some fruit salad for breakfast.  For lunch she ate bites of shepard's pie: hamburger, potatoes, green beans, and carrots.  She ate bites of toasted rye bread and bites of banana.  All 6 children are here today so it's been a busy morning.  (During the summer Reid will be here on Thursdays and Fridays.)  I took this first picture right after Avi finished breakfast.  Avi was messing with her hair and Reid found it quite humorous.  She found Reid to be quite humorous!  What a cute look she's giving him.

Avi was playing in the swivel-rocker chair (one of her favorite places to play) and then leaned over the side to touch Baby Nora on the head.  She leaned too far and went head-first off the side barely missing Nora!  It happened super fast and it kind of scared her, but didn't hurt her.  She immediately looked at me and I snuggled her on the couch.  I'm sorry, but it was SO funny!  She might have cried, but I was laughing too hard and she laid on my chest grinning at me.  Speaking of grinning at me - during Story Time she was snuggled up against me and kept looking up at me.  It is so cute when she does that!

Here are some pictures from this morning's activities.  In the first picture the kids were playing a Toddler version of "hide-n-seek."  Sophie was telling everyone where to "hide" and then she'd count a few numbers and "look" for them.  Then Avi was wearing the bandanas over her face and Nora was keeping a close eye on her.  Lauralea stopped by here about 10:30 and the kids went to the window to wave bye to her.  Sophie was slapping at the window and Lauralea would pretend to stumble backwards.  They (especially Sophie) were laughing SO hard.  It was pretty cute.  Lauralea was working her way back-n-forth to each one at the window.  We also played outside.
