Avi - 12/19/2019

Avilene had no waffle and ate two servings of fruit salad for breakfast.  For lunch she ate Meat loaf, two servings of whole wheat tortillas, ate carrots, and three servings of cherries.

Here's what Avilene asked me: "Hey Gary, can I touch one of your golden teeth?"  Hahaha!  (I have 7 gold crowns) In one word: "No."  She persisted of course, "Just one time!?!"  "No.  Not now.  Not ever.  Never."  For one thing Avilene, your fingers have been up your nose or in your mouth ALL morning!!  And now you're asking to put them in my mouth!!  Ha!  So she moved on and asked, "Hey Gary!  Where did you find your golden teeth!?!"  "Well Avilene, I do go hiking in the mountains a lot!  One day I was out in the woods and lo and behold............"  :)

First picture from yesterday afternoon.  (I posted this same paragraph in Svea's Blog)  I got out the two big bears and the kids had a blast with them the rest of the afternoon and the majority of the morning as well!!  It was almost 10:30 this morning before they played with anything else; and then several times they went back to the bears.

Next picture: Avi did some more art this morning.  But it was pretty brief and back to the mattress and being wild with the bears.  She liked what she did with the candy cane stickers and I like it too.  Very creative Avi!!  She said, "Hey Gary, look what I did with the candy cane!"  :)

Next picture: Back to the bears!!  I'm not sure what Avi was pointing at or who she was even talking to!  It's obvious that Atley is in her own world!!  Haha!!  Last picture:  Ok, this happens to be an instant favorite of mine and especially because no one started howling!!  If you look close Atley seems to be on the short end of this play maneuver!!  Haha!!
