Avi - 4/10/2019

Avilene ate two servings of French toast and ate strawberries for breakfast.  For lunch she ate most of hearty paleo stew with meat, cauliflower, broccoli, sweet potatoes, green beans, and carrots.  She also ate half of crackers and half of tropical fruit.

First picture:  Avi was doing some drawing on this sketch board.  (Whatever it's called.)  She said, "Hey Gary!  I made smiley face!"  And brought it over for me to see.  Wow!  You sure did and I'm impressed Avi.  I love it!  Then Avi added; "That's a girl."  Very nice.

Next picture: I've mentioned "hide-n-seek" several times in the past, but here we go again.  Nora agreed to some "hide-n-seek" with Avi and that game at this age is quite entertaining!!  So here's what's happening in the picture: Avi is helping Nora get well hidden!  Of course Avi is also going to be the one searching for Nora.  So that's handy.  Avi got her wrapped up pretty well with the dress-up clothes and then retreated around the corner.  Avi was back very quickly; "found you!"  :)

Last picture: Avi was wanting to create something with the legos.  Linnea and Svea joined her and kept offering her more legos.  Notice how close Svea's "offering" is to Avi's face.  I don't know what you see at home, but I'm impressed that Avi rarely gets impatient with her sister in situations like this. She just goes with it and if someone else complains Avi always says, "She's just a baby!"  Another note: We were singing "5 Little Speckled Frogs" and counting down.  After the last frog jumped into the pool Avi said, "Now it's zero."  Very good Avi.
