One Week

Egad, what a busy week! I guess it all started... at the beginning of the week. As it usually does.

On Monday I had soccer class. Wonderful soccer class. Where the rest of the kids and I pretty much ignored the soccer ball and crabwalked around the gym, or played with the curtain dividers, or picked our noses...you know, typical three-year-old sports.

Tuesday I was having a "nap" and daddy came in to check on me and when he opened the door, he startled me and I started crying. I calmed down and rested a bit longer, then when daddy came in later, he apologized for scaring me. I said "yeah, it made me so sad". Which made daddy feel bad.

That night daddy went to the fire station so mama and I went out on the town. We went to the toy store, and got me a smoothie to eat, and then walked around at the Bethany Center. Then we needed to go to Trader Joe's so we headed west. Mama got hungry so we stopped at the Mad Greek Deli. I told mama I wanted a picnic. On the grass. Under the power lines. So we got food to go and went to the park. We had such a nice picnic and a nice walk along the pond. We even found a bridge (!) and threw things in the water. Then we finally made our way to Trader Joe's and by the time we got home it was late and I went right to bed.


Wednesday I had soccer again. But first I went to the dentist with mama. We had been talking about it for a while. I knew he was going to want to look in my mouth. And he takes care of my teeth. Daddy went with us and I sat with him while the dentist counted mama's teeth. The chair moves up and down and the seat goes back and I did not want to sit in it. But when the dentist told me it was my turn I bravely got up and though I was tense, I let him recline the chair.

I was kind of excited to let him look in my mouth. I opened so big and mama and daddy were so proud of me. The dentist counted my teeth and said they all looked good and healthy. I got a new toothbrush and toothpaste and I like the dentist a lot.

I was talking to mama on Thursday and told her that we don't go to yamma and baba's house anymore because "yamma gave her house away. Yamma and baba don't live there anymore. They live with Amy."

I did a lot of playing with blocks on Friday night. I do a lot of pretend play these days and when mama and daddy aren't playing with me I talk for two people. "Daddy, daddy where are you? / I'm coming, I'm coming."

Yesterday morning (Saturday) we got up and went to Great Grandma's house. We saw Aunt Barbie and their little dog Herbie, who really likes to run around and play with me. I had fun, Barbie took me to the bridge and we threw things in. But not trash. I learned a new word, "organic". I had snacks and proclaimed that they made me "so much happy!"

This morning I went on a boat with daddy and some of his friends. There were some other little boys there and they were nice. I had a permagrin all morning. The boat was so much fun - I even got to ride on a tube behind it. When I got home, mama had made cookies. I had a little rest time, then I got to get up and watch some Oswald.





I was hanging on tight!






Boats are windy.





Tonight after dinner, I went for a little scooter ride with mama. When we got back home it was time for a bath. My hair was really long so she decided to get out daddy's clippers. Before I knew it, my hair was falling to the floor. Little curls everywhere. My head looks silly now. It looks like daddy's hair! I held still almost the whole time. I kept telling her it was tickly and asking if she was done yet...


TA DA!!! We like it but probably won't do it again anytime soon. It was fun to do once. And if you're going to do it, it might as well be in the summertime.
