Atley - 11/1/2019

Atley ate two servings of brown rice and ate raisins for breakfast.  For lunch she ate a few bites of her fish (Alaskan Pollack), ate whole wheat dinner roll, cauliflower, and mangoes.

Note from yesterday afternoon;  The neighbor kid had a "Grim Reaper" costume.  Obviously the Little Treasures kids have no idea what that is and Atley called him the "grim leader."  Haha.  (At this point I will resist the urge to make a political joke!!  Haha!!)

First picture left over from yesterday afternoon.  The girls were very interested in watching Nora put on her skeleton costume.  I had them stay on this side of the fence to make life a little easier for Momma Emily!!  :)  We can watch from a distance!

I'm sure everyone is SO curious about what kind of a morning we had after halloween evening!!  Haha!  I'll tell you anyhow; we were leaning slightly to the crazy side!!  Occasional spurts of extra energy combined with being overly tired.  This next picture is a great example.  We built this "wall" and anytime you put something on the floor like this they LOVE to run around and around it!!  Avilene was really into chasing Svea with Atley right behind them!!  It was loud and it was rowdy!  Following picture; Atley flying off the igloo.  (That's a normal event!!)  I love the flying ponytail!

Last picture:  I just thought it was very cute how they were all lined up sitting and ready for Story Time.  So I got ready to take a picture - and to get a reaction from them I shouted; "Who's the funniest guy you know!?!"  And they've been instructed to yell, "GARY!!"  Haha!  For my ego.

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...
