Linnea - 11/15/2018

Linnea ate half of toasted whole wheat english muffin and ate oranges for breakfast.  For lunch she ate a large serving of everything: ground beef, whole wheat elbow noodles, peas, and applesauce.

This next bit is pretty normal for all the kids, but it kind of tickles me!  Linnea was standing at the window waving bye to Daddy and Anders.  When they drove off her eyes never moved; she kept staring straight ahead just like she had been doing.  Finally she moved on - straight to the dress-up clothes and bowl with a spoon!  :)

Things were a bit different for about 45 minutes this morning.  Lauralea watched the kids for me while I went and got a new (used) king size mattress for the kids to jump on!  It's considerably bigger and they were all thrilled!  Avi said, "I like this new mattress Gary!!"  The old mattress had years of use and abuse and was pretty worn!!  :)  Now I have to go get some fitted sheets tonight!

Here are some more pictures from Linnea's morning: First picture: Where is your shirt Svea!?!  "Well, Gary said I don't have a spare shirt so he's looking for something for me to wear.  I hope he hurries because this is a bit embarrassing!!"  :)  Middle picture: Everyone except Avi was in the box and she was tossing in toys through the window.  Nora was concerned about Svea not having a shirt too!!  Last picture: Linnea was originally squeezed between the slide/steps and the mattress.  And then she pushed her way through as you see in the picture.

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 ...
