Atley - 11/2/2017

Atley ate bites of french toast and ate dried plums for breakfast.  For lunch she ate most of pulled pork sandwich, most of peas, and half of her cantaloupe.

Before Lauralea left this morning she made an observation; "It looks like Atley's diaper is sagging." Hudson said, "No, it's snowing!"  Haha!  Lauralea said, "I'm not talking about the weather!"  Cracked me up!  Speaking of a sagging diaper, I'm impressed (and amazed) by how much Atley will drink.  She averages about 24 ounces of fluid here every day!  8 ounces of milk at Breakfast, 8 ounces of milk at Lunch, and usually a full cup (another 8 ounces) of water at snack.  So it's no wonder she frequently has a sagging diaper regardless of the weather!!  Haha!!

This picture is from yesterday afternoon.  Kenzie had put everyone's name on a piece of paper and then she had Riley draw the lucky winner from the bowl!  I like how Riley is intentionally looking elsewhere!  No cheating here!!  Each child was awarded a medal on the basis of this drawing!  Ha!  She wrote on their paper/medal whether they got 1st, 2nd, 3rd...  (Kenzie just recently won a medal as her soccer team won a tournament!  So she's really into the medal thing right now!) These girls frequently include the little ones in their fun games after school.

Nora was really experimenting with walking backwards.  It was fun to watch and then Atley noticed what Nora was doing and joined her and they both practiced walking backwards.  Which is another physical development - plus it's cognitive thing as well and I love how they was really concentrating taking steps backwards.  Very intentional in what they were doing!   Good job you two!!  Then I took these last two pictures when those two were playing their version of "chase" across the room.  Atley has her arms out, but she's not really trying to catch or grab Nora.  It's just part of the game!
