Avi - 3/11/2019

Avilene ate bites of kix cereal and bites of mixed fruit for breakfast.  For lunch she ate ground turkey, whole wheat hamburger bun, no tomato, ate avocado, and ate cherries.  For probably two or three weeks Atley has been talking about "gumbo" at meal times at least once a day.  Today they (Nora, Avi, and Atley) decided they did NOT like "gumbo milk."  Haha!

(Just an FYI - There is a reminder about the free Carousel rides tomorrow in Svea's Blog!)

This first picture is left over from Friday afternoon; Lauralea was able to watch Svea while I took the three older kids outside.  (Linnea was gone on Friday.)  They had lots of fun outside, but nothing really beats sucking and chewing on an icicle!!  That's a BIG icicle Avilene!!

Today is Linnea's first day on a nap mat and all the "big kids" took Linnea out to the sleeping area so she could see her new spot.  We probably went out there three times this morning and we told her several times that she was going to sleep with the "big kids."  And we showed her everyone's sleeping spot!  That helps her know what to expect.  (And in case anyone is interested she did awesome - she was the first one asleep!)

We did a toy, book, puzzle, and preschool exchange this weekend so Avi was busy along with everyone else.  Here are some pictures from Avi's morning.  First one - she's looking at pictures in the little camera thing and it really helps to hold it up to the light, so she found the perfect spot for viewing!!  Second picture - Avi is reading the "Ooops" book.  The kids always get a big kick out of it. In the last two pictures she's doing some activities in the preschool room.  I like how she and Nora decide to set up their game under the high chair!!
