Linnea - 7/26/2018

Linnea needed a morning nap so I gave her a bottle and she slept for almost two hours.  When I was getting her ready for nap, and afterwards as well, Hudson and Atley were singing "Good night Linnea, good night Linnea,.....it's time to nappy now!"  At a high volume!  It quickly escalated into a super competition for highest volume!  Atley can be VERY loud, but Hudson was up to the challenge!!  Ha!  For lunch Linnea ate ground beef, whole wheat elbow noodles, peas, and applesauce.  I basically mixed it together and she ate the large amount that I served her.  :)

These first two pictures are from yesterday afternoon!  She's kind of a little monkey!!  She spent lots of time on this little climber.  She went down the slide on her belly, head first, and was using her hands to control herself.  The last several inches she kind of lost control, face planted in the grass, rolled over and headed right back up the slide!  Ha!!  With her bare feet she could easily climb right up the slide.

We were outside playing this morning and that's Atley on the bike that stopped to visit with Linnea. Linnea loves the kids and is very social.  And they all love her as well!!  Nora tries to treat her like her personal baby, but now that Linnea is moving so well it totally changes that dynamic.  Plus, this morning Linnea grabbed Nora's doll and Nora was whimpering, "my baby, my baby, my baby."  "No Linnea, no Linnea."  Ha!  So I said, "Nora, you are the big girl.  Just stand up, take your toys and move away from her."  But that didn't work.  Nora wanted Linnea to move away.  :)  The last picture; Linnea back at the slides.  But this is a bigger and steeper one than yesterday, plus she had her sandals on, so she didn't get too far up this one.

Linnea ate cheerios and banana for breakfast.  For lunch she ate bites of ground beef, ate whole wheat pita bread, olives, avocado, and strawberries. First picture: I love how Linnea likes to snuggle and say, "I love you Gary."  So precious!!  Especially first thing in the morning before too many other kids arrive and then it's busy time!!  This was a selfie when she was snuggling me and then she asked, "Can you send that to my Mom?"  :)  Following picture: I had a phone appointment with an insurance agent so Lauralea was reading to the kids for me.  Lauralea was pretending to cry when Peter Rabbit was stuck in the fence.  Even though Svea wasn't on the couch she was listening and she immediately said, "Don't cry Lauralea, don't cry.  Don't cry Lauralea, don't cry." This next picture of the water bottles; pretty fascinating right!?!  Haha.  Linnea asked for water and then something was bugging her, but I couldn't under...

Linnea ate oatmeal and apple pieces for breakfast.  For lunch she ate a large serving of hamburger stew with meat, carrots, tomatoes, and green beans.  She also ate whole wheat dinner roll and two servings of apricots. Yesterday afternoon probably 30 minutes after you guys picked up Linnea and left on your bicycle, it started to rain.  That really caused Atley to be concerned.  It was SO sweet!!  She said, "I hope Eric, Becca, and Linnea don't get wet.  And Anders."  :)  That was so thoughtful Atley. First picture:  Nothing too much to say about this picture; other than these three were just having fun giggling and enjoying each other.  Following picture: The kids love the mirrors!!  They set up their "horsey rides" so they could watch themselves in the mirror!  I tried for several minutes to get a picture with all 4 of these kids on their horse.  Ha!  About the time two or three would get on their horse then one ...

Linnea ate blueberry muffin and ate two servings of grapes for breakfast.  For lunch she ate two servings of shrimp, ate brown rice, a large serving of stir fry vegetables, and ate raspberries.  At breakfast Svea told Linnea; "Here's your high chair Linnea."  Linnea was SO excited!  She acted like the chair had been missing!!  "Svea found my high chair Gary!!  Svea found my high chair!!"  :)  Also at breakfast time Avilene said, "My Mom has a wallet and it has a LOT of money in it!!"  Linnea said, "My Mom has a wallet and it has dinosaurs in it."  LOL First picture; Linnea got down and said "hi" to Miles and I happened to have the camera ready.  She doesn't really like to cooperate if I try to recreate a scene so I have to catch her in the moment!!  Ha. Following picture: Playing with one of the masks.  It's kind of freaky looking when you can't see their eyes!!  Walking blindly about!! Three pictures of the ...
