Atley - 4/302020

Atley ate three servings of blueberry bagel and two servings of peaches for breakfast.  For lunch she ate 2 servings of pork roast, ate whole wheat dinner roll, ate slices of orange and red peppers, and ate pineapple.  At lunch she said, "I'm done!" and she had over half a plate full of food.  Ok that's fine, but did you have a bite of your peppers?  She said, "Yes, but I don't really like vegetables." I said, "Well we eat vegetables because they help us be healthy!"  Then, just being silly I said, "And help us not get the coronavirus!!"  Atley said, You have to wear a mask!"  I said, "Yes and eat your vegetables."  She began eating those peppers and ate everything!!  Haha.  It helped that Avi pitched in with her 10 cents worth and was yapping on and on about how we need to eat vegetables.  :)

The three oldest girls, but usually just Atley and Avi, are having frequent discussions about who is the oldest.  We have the Birthday Poster and we make frequent reference to it.  Anyhow, this morning after much discussion Avi finally said, "I was born before you!?  Atley asked, "Why?!?"  Avi said, "I don't know, ask Gary!!"  Haha.  I said, "Ask your Mothers."  :)

First picture: Avilene had a box elder bug captured and was showing the bug to the rest of the group.  Nothing more interesting outside than those stinking bugs.  The warmest day of the year, lots of sunshine, and everyone is wearing a hat.  Atley is the only one here with her own hat.  I told Avilene the only head covering I had left was a knit cap.  Haha.  About 30 minutes of wearing that thing, longer than I thought she would, her head was sweating!!

Here are a couple pictures from this morning.  Coloring and drawing on her picture and doing work on the Kindle.  You'll notice her ponytail has long since disappeared.  I said, "You took out your ponytail."  Atley said, "We call them scrunchies."  Oh!  :)
