IU Baseball

I went to IU basketball games when I was little.  I went to IU football games a lot of times.  But I never knew they had IU baseball games.  Daddy wanted to go.  What is next?  IU soccer games (Daddy note: Good idea, Riley) So we went to the game and we met Tyler there.  He lives at IU and I think he goes to school.  I don't know what grade he is in though.

We sat on blankets on the grass field.  I liked it because got to play around.

After the game was over they let kids run around the bases.  But this baseball place did not have dirt.  The grass was not even real grass!  It was like a plastic rug.  I didn't know it was not real grass and dirt because they paint it green and brown.  But I ran around the bases fast...

...and so did Luci.  But I know that I was faster than her.  Watch out!  I'm running home!

Derby Winner

We watched the Kentucky Derby horse race.  I drew the number 5 horse and Mommy and Aunt Sissy were mad because was a good horse.  Then guess what?  He won the race!

Kinderstar

Finally my day to do Kinderstar!  Almost all of the other kids had their turns.  I had to wait and wait because Yanez starts with a Y.  But finally I got to do my turn. Mommy and Daddy helped me fill out the poster.

Special Facts About Me:
I know how to ride a scooter really fast.

I am part Mexican.

I brought in some special things to show the class like the Build A Bear monkey with my heartbeat. And my Ever After High book.

Mommy and Daddy and Luci came to my school to watch me present it.  Mr McGuire was funny and made lots of jokes about me driving a car.  I did a good job with the presentation.

Happy Easter

The Easter Bunny came to our house and hid some eggs.  We hunted for eggs before we went to church.    

Do you like my hat?  I like to dress up fancy for church.

I found an egg in the kitchen set and it was still kinda wet.  I got blue color on my hands.  Good thing I didn't get it on my dress!  After church we went to Gram's house and changed into our play clothes.  

And the best part about Easter is I can have desserts!  I gave up desserts for lent.  

Spring School Days

I am back at school after spring break.  I have been busy too.  I go to Daisies after school some days and some days I go to music club.

I'm learning a lot of new stuff.  I can do addition and subtraction.  And I am getting pretty good at reading.  I used to just know the words we learned at school. But now I can sound out words I don't know and read them too.  At least easy words.  Not real long ones.

My school had a fish fry dinner.  I like going to it because I see my friends.  We run around and have fun.   I also got to show Mommy and Daddy a picture of my class on the cross.  Do you see me up there?

And if you bring a dessert for the fish fry then you get to have a no uniform day.  I wore my striped dress that day.  I can't wait for some things at school too.  I can't wait until we go to the zoo on our field trip.  And I can't wait to do my Kinderstar day.  

Too Big For The Wagon

We went for a walk and Daddy said I was too big for the wagon.  That is no fun to be too big.  I wish I was still little enough to fit in the wagon.  Luci and Julian got to ride in the wagon.  The only good part is that I could pull the wagon.  I guess that was just as good.

March Madness

Daddy helped me write the names of all of the teams playing basketball.  I wanted to pick IU but they are not playing. Boo!  And I said that I would never pick any team from Kentucky or Louisville.  I liked George Washington because he was a president I learned about in school.  I checked out a book about presidents from the library and Daddy was so excited.  The book didn't say that he played basketball.  But I picked Saint Joseph's team to win the games.

My Final Four:
Saint Joseph's - it is Daddy's name and it is a saint!
American - because it's....us?
Florida - because it is hot there.  When it is cold I just want to go to Florida and warm up.
Saint Louis - because of the movie "Saint Louie" (Meet Me In St Louis).  It is about a girl and her family and going to New York.

We are going to color in the names to see if I get them right.  Go Saint Joseph!
