Pre-K Days

I have been going to school for 2 months now.  I have made some friends and learned a lot.  I am practicing my handwriting.  I get to cut stuff with scissors - that is so much fun to cut stuff up!  I have been learning about letters. Every letter has a animal like Ozzie the Octopus and Sammy the Seal.  We learn about God a lot too.

My teacher's name is Mrs. Crone.  She had a meeting with all of the mommies and daddies this week.  So she talked to my Mommy and Daddy about me.  I think she said mostly good stuff but I was busy playing with Luci and showing her the toys in our room.

I know that she said that like coloring and painting art stuff.  Look at this...I painted a snake inside the lines.  Then I painted a rainbow with no lines.  I just had to paint it.  I think they were pretty good.

I have one more day of school tomorrow before fall break.  Guess where I am going to next week then?  Back to Alice's house with Luci.  It will be like I'm a little kid again!  I'll just have to tell those little kids there what to do.

I'm Five!

 

I turned FIVE on September 15th.  I've been waiting for my birthday for a long time.  I always ask how many times we need to turn the calendar to September.  It seemed like it took forever. We had to go to GG's house on my birthday.  So Mommy let me pick Pizza King to eat the day before.  We sat almost all the way to the last one on the train.  And my friend Lyric sat right next to us!  

On my actual birthday I opened up some presents in the morning.  I got a Smurfs movie and a Rapunzel doll.  I had a Rapunzel doll before and I lost it so I was excited to get a new one.  I'm not going to lose this one.  She has animals that braid her hair when you turn the thing.  Then we drove up to GG's so we could go to a shower party for Mommy's cousin Becky.  (Great) Aunt Mary got me a birthday cake with princesses and we ate it after the party.  

I had a party at SIGS with Luci on a day awhile ago.  We had a lot of friends there.  My long time friends were there and I also invited some new friends from school.  Here is a picture of me swinging on the rope there.  It was a lot of fun too. 

 

It was a good birthday.  Now I need to figure out how many times to turn the calendar to the next one. 

Picking Apples at the Farm

Guess what?  We went to the farm today.  Grandma and Grandpa were at our house for the birthday party so they went with us too.  They took us to the zoo and we fed the ponies and bunny rabbits.  They even had some llamas too.  And we fed some fish too.  The fish would open their mouths waiting for the food.  

Mommy told me how to pick the apples.  You turn the bottom up to the sky.  And you don't pick the ones that are on the ground.  Those are yucky and they have bugs and bees on them.

We picked a lot of apples.  It was too heavy to carry.  Daddy had to carry them.    

Fashion

I am kind of into fashion a lot.  I like to watch Project Runway with Mommy.  It is a fun girl show because these people make dresses and clothes.  They cut stuff and glue stuff and doing sewing like Mommy.  I didn't know that was how you made clothes?  I even got some fashion books at the library to learn more about it.

So I like playing with my dolls and dressing them up. I have a puzzle doll with a bunch of different clothes.  I was playing with Daddy where we dressed her up.  Daddy was making some silly outfits.  He does not know about fashion.  Then I started making some silly outfits too.

Look at this one! She has arms on her front and hats on her legs.  It was funny.  It looked worse than the ones that Daddy made.  That is bad.  But I laughed at it because it was so silly.

Making Some Smores

I had a cookout party at my house last night.  Grandma and Grandpa and Tia were here.  Tia was visiting from Boston.  Then Gram and Poppy and Kevin and Aunt Sissy and Landon and everybody came over.  I ate hot dogs and watermelon.  And then Poppy started a fire and we cooked some marshmallow smores.  I ate the marshmallows and the graham crackers but I didn't eat much chocolate.  I have been saying that I don't like chocolate anymore.  Daddy said he doesn't believe me. But I kind of don't like it. I still put chocolate in my milk though. The smores were good without the chocolate.  

You got to be careful to stay away from the fire.  Don't put the marshmallow in the fire either.  Or it will be black.  I hold it right above the fire.  That is the best spot.

First Day of School (Pre-K)

I went to my first day of school today!  My school is called Our Lady and it is right by church.  Me and Mommy have been shopping so I have all of my stuff for school.  I have a La La Loopsy backpack.  My lunchbox has the fairies and Tinker Bell on it.  I picked out some Cinderella things too.  

Luci came with me to see my classroom.  She can't go to school yet so Daddy took her to Alice's.  There are lots of toys in the classroom so that is good.  There are even beds where you can take a nap.  I have a pillow.  There are lots of books too.

My teacher is Mrs. Crone.  She is nice.  Before I went to bed Mommy read me a special book called The Kissing Hand.  It is a story about a raccoon who doesn't want to go to school.  But his mommy kisses his hand so he can have her love all day.  I loved the book and I brought it to school.  And Mrs. Crone read it to the class.  I had a good first day and Aunt Sissy and Uncle Steven picked me up.

Mia's Journey

Mia was my very first baby I had when I was a baby.  We took her to Florida and she was lost at a restaurant!  See, here is a picture at the frog restaurant and you can see me holding her.  Then Luci had her after the picture and I think she lost her then.  We didn't know she was lost until we were leaving.  Mommy and Daddy looked in all of the bags and all over the condo and they couldn't find her.

We called the restaurant they said they found her!  We were already driving away so Gram's friend got her for us. That was so nice.  She mailed her to us.  I was so excited to have Mia back.  She is back with her brother Josh.  Mia said she had fun in Florida.  Ha ha.
