Linnea - 8/13/2019

Linnea ate whole wheat English muffin and most of dried plums for breakfast.  For lunch she ate a large serving of chicken with stir fry vegetables (with pineapple added - yum).  She also ate bites of brown rice and ate oranges.  It's kind of a quiet morning around here this week - and - next week will be short on numbers too.  Nora is gone the rest of the week, Avi is doing morning dance class all week, Atley is leaving Friday and gone next week, and Linnea is gone all next week as well.

This first picture is from yesterday afternoon and Linnea was trying to buckle the straps on the stroller.  Svea was trying to cooperate, but it was a difficult task!  :)  Not sure how adjusting the strap way down there is going to help keep Svea in the stroller.  Haha.

Next picture: Lauralea was testing Linnea and Svea for their upcoming developmental assessments.  Atley was concerned when Lauralea was done and said, "Hey! You forgot about me!!"  (That assessment will happen on Atley's birthday in December.)  So Lauralea had her do a couple of things.  Lauralea had given Linnea two combined instructions and we were watching her reaction.  Well she headed across the room and started singing, "Old MacDonald had a Farm" and got completely distracted from the instructions.  It was very cute and pretty funny.

Last picture: I put a ponytail in Linnea and Svea's hair and they were at the mirror having a look.  Atley came over and bent her head; "Look at my ponytail!"  Ha!  Yup it's a good 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 ...
