Avi & Svea - 10/29/2018

Avilene ate chex cereal and peaches for breakfast.  For lunch she ate ground beef, whole wheat hamburger bun, ate avocado, bite of tomatoes, and ate oranges.

We were at the breakfast table and Svea came crawling around the changing table and Nora let out a LOUD squeal of delight!!  It was piercing and quite startling!  haha!  (Avi and Svea had arrived moments before that and Nora's so in love with baby Svea.)  Sometimes Nora's squeal of delight and scream of anger are so close in tone I have to look at her face to see her expression!  It guess it wasn't just nerve wracking for me; Avi looked at me with big eyes and said, "She's laughing too loud."  Ha!

Avi was telling me a very serious story ...."somebody is sad....somebody misses him".... She was saying names (not somebody), but I couldn't get it.  I said, "Awww; in a book?"  She said, "No no no, in Toy Story!" Haha!  Then later she was pointing at the wall and counting.  What are you counting?  She said, "Dots on the wall."  And it went like this:  "1 2 3...(up to)...10...(then)...there's 59!!"  Ha!  She looked at me with a big grin.  Yup that's a pretty cool number!!

We did a toy, book, and puzzle exchange in the Daycare and Preschool rooms.  The kids were super busy all morning and Avi worked hard at exploring everything!!  First picture: We call these "tech toys" and we only have one or two "tech toys" in each toy exchange for the preschool area.  It would be easy to have ALL tech toys - there are so many available!!  We like lots of activities that they can explore and create things with their own imagination, but "tech toys" are definitely fun!  Second picture: I like watching Avi use the magnet stick and move these "buttons" around; she's always very strategic in how she places them!  Last picture: I don't even know what this set of building toys is called, but Avi and Atley were enjoying it for a long time.
