Avi - 1/17/2018

Avilene ate two servings of french toast (amazing what a little syrup does - ha) and two servings of strawberries for breakfast.  For lunch she had bites of "whole 30" (which basically means no beans) chili with hamburger, peppers, sweet potatoes, tomatoes, tomato sauce, and seasoning.  She also ate tropical fruit and dinner roll.

This story is more about Hudson, but it does have Avi's name in it!  Ha!  Here's a random question that Hudson asked me this morning and then asked Atley!  Ha!  "Hey Gary, what's the funniest joke you heard?"  So I said, "knock knock," but that kind of fizzled out before it got started.  Ha!  Then Hudson turns to Atley and Avi, but directed the question to Atley; "Hey Atley, what's the funniest joke you heard?"  LOL  I roared!

Here are a couple of pictures from this morning's activities; Avi was working hard with the blocks and she told Lauralea she was building "a house."  Later, she was working with them again and said, "my tower" when I took this picture.  In the second picture she and Hudson were playing with the "I Spy" book again and were identifying objects from one page that were on the next page.

Hudson and Avi had lots of fun doing puzzles this morning.  They basically did all the puzzles in this toy exchange - probably a dozen at least.  (I got curious so I went and counted.  There are 14.)  Both of these kids are very good at puzzles - recognizing the same pieces and putting them in the right place, shape recognition, and using cognitive skills to organize the pieces.  (This doesn't really matter, but they were both working at about the same speed as well - pretty quick!)
