Atley - 02/11/2021

Atley ate two servings of raisin/cinnamon English muffin and ate mandarin oranges for breakfast.  For lunch she had half of ground beef, ate whole wheat elbow noodles, peas, and applesauce. 

First picture: I took this picture 30 minutes before breakfast. These were two pictures Nora had left over from yesterday and she asked Atley to help her out. Yesterday before Nora left she asked me; "Can you NOT throw it away while I'm gone!?" LOL! I roared. Man these kids make me laugh! Nora knows I utilize the recycle bin after the kids are all gone. :)

Next picture: Today was "Science with Lauralea" for the Preschool kids. We've been doing a "weather" theme lately and today was specifically "freezing." (Miles and Cal got to watch this one.) Perfect weather for this experiment; throw some hot water in the air. We asked the kids first; "Do you think Lauralea can make it snow?!?" Yup, they all think she can work magic; except for Atley. "Noooo!" But Lauralea did it and here's a picture to prove it. Frozen water particles everywhere! I'm glad it was cold enough today for the kids to watch this!

Next picture: The 2nd outside experiment involved blowing bubbles. I like how everyone, including Lauralea, is looking up and watching the bubbles. They would freeze, pop, and crystals would drop. We also used "special bubbles" that didn't freeze.  Last picture: This is more of an Art Project, but there is "freezing" involved!! The kids had a choice: Make an "ice castle" or make an "ornament." All did "ice castles," except for Nora did an "ornament." And now they are in the freezer and will probably go home with the kids tomorrow. The kids threaded beads on two pipe cleaners and shaped those when they were done. They added beads, sparkles, and other pretty items to their castles and Nora to her ornament. They also did a 2nd Art Project using Valentine Hearts.

Atley ate half of cheerios and half of banana for breakfast.  For lunch she ate ground beef, whole wheat pita bread, ate avocado, ate olives, no tomato, and bite of cantaloupe. Atley was very thrilled to have someone laughing at her shenanigans and she was making Nora laugh within the first minute of arrival.  (Momma Megan got to witness some of their joyful interactions in the short time she was here!)  First picture: Those two are waving at Momma Megan.  When they were waiting for Megan to drive around the corner Atley was intentionally "bonking" her forehead on the window and Nora was cracking up!!  Haha!  Welcome back Nora. Then Atley was showing Nora her "bruised" elbow.  (I could see nothing that even resembled a bruise!)  Atley said, "I got an owie on here!!"  Nora said, "OW!"  Haha!  Which suited Atley perfectly; that's what she wanted to hear!! Here are a couple more pictures from Atley's morning.  She was doin...

Atley ate two servings of blueberry bagel and three servings of grapes for breakfast. For lunch she ate shrimp, two servings of brown rice soaked in black raspberry juice, ate broccoli, and ate black raspberries.   Apparently Atley has been having issues with Alexa lately!! Early this morning Atley said, "Alexa is still mad at me!" That made me laugh hard. Ok, it's time to reboot Alexa and that changed her attitude. :) First picture: Nora is not here today, but Atley still played at the Doll House. Well technically not AT the Doll House, but with Doll House accessories. :) In the second picture she made a "restaurant" with the legos. She has 2 little people facing each other and said they were "having a staring contest!" Haha. She made me laugh hard again! Third picture; Doing Animal Workout again and this time she's a "Dragon" in case you don't recognize the "dragon pose." :) Next picture; The kids were all lined up at the ...

Atley ate whole wheat toast and three servings of mangoes for breakfast. For lunch she ate a large serving of ground beef with marinara sauce on top of a large serving of whole wheat spaghetti noodles - then two more large servings of spaghetti noodles, ate two servings of cauliflower, and three servings of fruit salad. Lunch conversation was primarily Avi giving Atley some tips on how to trick the parents. Haha. Here's a sample: "So ask your Dad to pick you up and he'll probably say yes." (Haha) "Then go ask your Mom to pick you up. And they'll both come to pick you up!!" And other variations on this theme.  Atley got Avi's water bottle for Avi to have a drink at Avi's request. Silence. I said, "Tell Atley thank you." Avi said, "Thank you" and Atley said, "Welcome." Avi said, "Why do you say welcome and not you're welcome?" Then Avi expanded on her point; "That's like saying welcome to the pal...
