Atley - 8/3/2017

Atley ate waffle and a bite or two of fruit salad for breakfast.  For lunch she wasn't interested in a bite of "Shepard's Pie" which has hamburger, green beans, carrots, sweet potatoes, and red potatoes.  She ate some whole grain tortillas and a bite or two of cherries.

It's SOOOO nice that Atley is feeling better.  There was definitely more singing and conversation in the Daycare this morning and that's a good thing!!  I took these first 2 pictures when Reid was pestering Atley.  She was totally focused on the little animal she was looking at and he tossed his blanket over her head.  It really didn't even faze her and she kept studying the stuffed animal.  Ha!  In the 2nd picture she just kind of looked at him like "whatever." He has his cute little mischievous smirk on his face!!  She's getting a proper introduction to how little boys (and big boys) behave!!  Ha!

We played outside for a long time this morning and the kids had lots of fun.  I wrote in my notes; "Atley played with the lawnmowers, dump trucks,  and ice cream carts.  So far she isn't a fan of the climbers or the balls."  Probably 10 minutes after I wrote that she was on the climber playing.  Then 10 minutes later she was playing with one of the balls.  Hey!!  Are you reading my notes!?!  Ha!

Here's a picture of her and Nora hanging out at the geo-climber.  Nora was being unusually adventurous this morning - standing up, climbing up on the climbers, etc. - the other kids, including Atley were all enjoying watching her!!

Atley ate whole wheat bagel and peaches for breakfast.  For lunch she ate hamburger pizza with whole wheat crust, tomato sauce, olives, peppers, mushrooms, and pineapple. This isn't just about Atley, but I think you'll like it.  At the breakfast table when everyone was just about done eating Avilene started whipping her head side-to-side really fast and furious - just being a goof and showing-off!  Nora and Atley were laughing hard of course and started doing the same thing, squealing louder every passing second!  I told Avi, "Hold your head still please."  Hudson never misses an opportunity to add his two cents worth, and he followed with this; "Or your ponytail will fall out!"  haha!  (The fact that Avi didn't have a ponytail was apparently irrelevant!) So we're hearing new words every day from Atley!  Very cool.  This morning shortly after she arrived she was playing in front of the igloo and randomly said, "tiger." What!?!  Surpr...

Atley ate whole wheat English muffin and mandarin oranges for breakfast.  For lunch she ate two servings of ground beef, two servings of whole wheat elbow noodles, ate peas, and applesauce. I'm not exactly sure what brought about the conversation about our "heart," but Atley informed everyone "I know when your heart breaks." Oh really, when is that? "When you're NOT in love." Then after a few moments she added; "When you die." :) Today was Science with Lauralea and the kids were super excited as always. The theme was "our tongue" and "taste buds." Lots of tasting today! As you can see in the first picture we had a partially completed (ha) diagram of the tongue and we briefly told the kids where their taste buds are located. So we started by having them plug their nose and experimented with them deciding if they could taste better with their nose plugged or unplugged. Then we moved on to lots of tasting. "Is it sw...

Atley ate malt-o-meal cereal and a bite of dried plums for breakfast.  For lunch she ate a bite or two of "beef kabobs" (beef, peppers, zucchini, mushrooms), ate whole wheat toast, and pineapple. This first picture is from yesterday afternoon.  Atley was squatted down in the middle of the sidewalk watching school kids walk home.  Avilene saw her squatting there and ran to join her.  Not too much to say about this picture except for the fact I think it's adorable!! In this next picture Hudson was holding a mirror in front of Atley's face and he said, "This is Atley."  Ha!  These are some new mirrors I got; one side magnifies and the other side distorts!  (Hey!  Just trying to start them off with a good self-image! Ha!) There were several robins in the yard when I took these last two pictures.  The robin in the first picture hopped down to the ground and Hudson said, "He fell off!"  Haha!  Robins are one of the more "calm...
