Avi & Svea - 10/1/2018

Avilene ate half of whole wheat chex cereal and ate peaches for breakfast.  For lunch she ate ground beef, whole wheat hamburger bun, no tomatoes, bite of avocado, and bites of oranges.

We did a toy, book, and puzzle exchange this weekend and all the kids love Monday morning toy exchange!  Lots of new stuff to explore!!  I was laughing hard watching Linnea and Svea try to play with the same pop-up toy.  I have 2 or more of everything to help eliminate conflict, but the toy that's being used is always more interesting!!  First two pictures: Linnea was trying to keep the toy away from Svea and she started to roll over with the toy, it was too big and she bonked herself on the head!  Svea, of course, didn't have a clue about any of that and just continued to head for the toy and was basically trying to crawl over Linnea and Linnea was trying to hold her off!  It just couldn't have been funnier or cuter!!  Wonderful start to a Monday morning - at least for me and my viewing pleaure!!  :)  As you can see in the second picture nothing really fazed them and moments later those two were right back to playing with the same toy!!  Picture number three!  Svea was waving bye to Lauralea!  It was just TOO stinking cute!!  It took Lauralea about 5 minutes to get out the door because Svea just kept waving!!  Lauralea said, "You're making it very hard to leave Svea!!"  :)

Oh my goodness - this is Avi's Blog, not Svea's!!  :)  We added lots of new stuff in the preschool room too and here are three pictures of Avi totally engaged this morning!  First tray she's sorting these shapes by size - small, medium, and large.  She did the entire stack.  The following tray is a game we found that has lots of pictures and you can construct all sorts of creations using plastic "bolts" to hold them together.  So they were working on this and Lauralea said, "You need another bolt."  Avi said, "Peter has a bolt. (bullet)  We shoot em!"  LOL!!  That was just too cute!

We put out a couple of cameras in the preschool room and Avi was getting a kick out of playing with one of those.  She liked looking at the screen to see what she was taking a picture of.  Last picture; I never know what I'll see when Avi says, "Hey Gary! Look at this!"  or   "Look at me!"
