Avi - 5/22/2019

Avilene ate French toast and two servings of strawberries for breakfast.  For lunch she ate "Whole 30 chili" with meat, sweet potatoes, tomatoes, tomato sauce, and peppers.  She ate her whole wheat dinner roll, and tropical fruit.

First picture:  Well this is more about Nora and Atley, but I think you'll like it.  These four were waiting to wave bye to Nora's Momma Emily.  (Did you notice Avi is as tall as Atley?  Haha! Check it out!)  Atley was in the bathroom when Nora arrived and Nora was freaking out that Atley was gonna miss waving good bye.  I said, "Here she comes!"  Except I was referring to Atley!!!  Nora thought I meant her Momma was coming around the corner and she freaked out more because Atley was NOT at the window yet.  Oh man!  By the time I took this picture poor Nora was a wreak!!  Avilene was talking to her and trying to reassure Nora, which was nice, but nothing was working!  (It all ended well, Atley was there before Momma arrived, but the trauma and drama had already taken place!!)

Avi was a very busy girl ALL morning and was so engaged in everything.  I had to remind her 3 times to come and wash for breakfast; she was reading books.  She came in and said, "I read LOTS and LOTS of books!"  Yes you did!  She was wanting me to help her tie an apron on her and she said, "Help me Gary! I want to pretend I'm a cookie maker."  Then she had a doll blanket wrapped around her shoulders and said, "Hey Gary! I am a superhero too!"  (The reference was to me wearing my superhero - never fear grandpa is here - shirt.)

Next picture:  When I told the kids there was a deer outside the window Avi and Atley sprinted to get over to see it!  The deer had been on the lawn when I spotted it, but it stopped to look back when it heard the kids at the window!  And stayed long enough for me to get a picture.  Last picture: Another example of Avi working very hard at one of her projects.  Nice work and you had a great morning Avi!
