Atley - 4/23/2019
Atley ate whole wheat English muffin and two servings of grapes for breakfast. For lunch she ate pork chop, ate whole wheat toast, bites of beets, bites of sweet potatoes, and ate applesauce. At breakfast Atley said, "We can't cough at the table." Haha! I said, "Yes we can cough, but cover your cough like this." (So I did a cough into my elbow.) Nora said, "We can say aaah.....chooo!!" Ha! Avi said, "NO! We say Bless you!!" Hilarious!
Atley and Nora were having a conversation and it went something like this. (Invitations to each other's house are common; almost daily.) Atley said, "Do you want to come to my house Nora?" Nora said, "No, just my own house." Atley (obviously trying to sweeten the pot - haha!) said, "Well I have Brad at my house. I love my Brad." ... "And a Megan." Nora said, "Well I love my Emily!!" The comedy never ends!
First picture; The kids liked watching me spray paint numbers on the "stepping stones" yesterday and we painted the big wooden "cookies" too. The plan is to use them for some outdoor games. Second picture also from yesterday. The angle of this picture makes Nora look so stinking small while Atley pushes her in the stroller! Ha! So cute.
We did some sidewalk chalk outside yesterday and Atley made an amazing "A" and I commented on it. A few minutes later she said, "Gary! Come see this one!" And as you can see in the next picture she'd made an ''A" and an "M." I was impressed and Lauralea was too. I know when Lauralea's impressed because she says, "send me that one!" Haha! She'll use it for an illustration while teaching one of her classes. Here's a side note; I was taking a class from Lauralea two weeks ago and she used an older picture for an illustration. One of the boys in the picture is now in the Marines. :)
Last picture: We just finished playing this game for the first time and they all did great!! (It's much easier to try things like this during this week while Baby Callahan is on vacation.) Anyhow, it involved taking turns and waiting for your turn to select the top card, then I would read the card and they put their color piece on the right animal. Nora was red, Atley yellow, and Avi was blue. Notice Avi posing for the picture. :)
