Avi - 5/21/2018

Avilene ate kix cereal and two servings of mixed fruit for breakfast.  For lunch she ate turkey burger half of whole wheat hamburger bun, bites of lettuce, no tomato, ate avocado, and ate cherries.  Hudson and Nora are not here today so at breakfast I asked, "Who's not here today?"  Always a tricky question for this age group!  Avilene immediately said, "Bubba."  Yes, good answer.  Next she said, "Linnea."  She's here, but that was actually a good answer because Linnea was already taking a nap when Avi arrived so she'd not seen her.  Atley said, "Atley!!"  Nope.  You're here!  Haha!  About a minute later Avi suddenly asked, "Where's Nora?"  Alright we got it!!  :)  Atley started saying, "Nor Nor, Nor Nor."  Yup, she's gone too.

We were in the middle of Story Time and reading Dr Seuss' "Foot Book."  Avilene randomly says; "I went to Easter Hunt."  Haha!  I don't know why I thought that was so funny, but it definitely hit my funny bone!!  I love Avi!!  (I even went back in the book to see if I could see anything that triggered the "Easter Hunt."  Nothing apparent to me.)  Then she noticed our neighbor and asked, "What's Big Willy doing?"  However, Avi was mostly excited when she saw "his shirt like mine!!"  Both red - I think.  :)  Actually, I verified that with Avi.  She's my go-to color girl!

We did a toy, book, and puzzle exchange this weekend so the girls were super busy this morning.  I've mentioned recently how many puzzles they do and how much they enjoy the puzzles.  Today it was 11:00 before they even asked to do puzzles so you know they were busy and occupied.  In this first picture Avi was playing with the little people and the house.  She asked, "Where's a blanket?"  (For the baby that you can't see under the blanket.)  This is a doll blanket and if you unfolded it, you could cover the entire house.  :)  You'll notice the tutus Avi is wearing in all the pictures.  Actually she has on two of them and she kept them on all morning!  (For you overly observant ones, if the igloo placement looks different to you in the last picture - you're right.  It got moved a little bit.)  :)
