Avi - 12/4/2019

Avilene ate a bite of French toast and three servings of strawberries for breakfast.  For lunch she ate a large serving of "hearty paleo stew" with meat, carrots, green beans, tomatoes, cauliflower, and broccoli.  She also ate crackers and three servings of tropical fruit.

This first picture is left over from yesterday afternoon.  Svea and Avi were giving each other lots of loves and affection.  It's so cute to watch them play together.

I've mentioned several times how I read a sentence in a book and leave the end word or words blank.  The kids never cease to amaze me how many stories and songs they retain!!  We were reading "Saturday Night at the Dinosaur Stomp."  I read, "The party went on - it was so outrageous, they stayed up well past the late _______."  Avi nailed it: "Cretaceous."  :)  Again, it's been weeks since she heard this story.  And she pronounced it perfectly.

More pictures; Avilene was super busy this morning; doing LOTS of activities in the Preschool all morning.  I love it when she's in that mode!!  Focused and working hard!!  In this picture she was cutting out shapes and drawing.  Last picture:  This activity involves counting and matching.  There are 10 apples on the tree and she has to count the seeds in the apple and find that number.  She did this successfully and found 1 - 10.  She was proud of herself and wanted me to take a picture of the finished product - except I was feeding Miles.  I told her I had this picture and I would explain the process in the Blog.  :)
