MiMi and Aunt Jo Visit

I was so excited that Aunt Jo and Mimi came to visit. Aunt Jo and I sang a lot! "Sunny Days" was the song we did the most, Mom thinks it's an orginial. It had fancy hand movements and dancing to go with it. I've been watching the video of it over and over again, it's my favorite, of course Mimi has a part in the video too.

The busy Saturday

The first Saturday in October was really busy. We were invited to so many things. We missed out on Maisie's birthday party and Ms. Elizabeth and Mr. Ken's cookout, but we had lots to do. First, mom took me to the square for the Book Fair, there were lots to do. I met Chick-fil-A cow and a few other characters, walked in the kids parade around the square, then met up with Emma and did arts and crafts, our faces painted and walked around. Then we went home for lunch and pick up dad to go to his co-workers cookout. I met lots of kids there and really enjoyed playing on their swing-set. Then back home to refill the milk and off to Jill and Erick's cookout in celebration of their marriage. It's was lots of fun, although I was the only kid, I didn't want to hang out with mom and dad, everyone was lots more fun. I really liked hanging out with Jill, and was terribly disappointed to wake up at home and Jill wasn't around.




the pictures are from the square, mom didn't take any at the cookouts.

State Fair

Mom and I went to the State Fair with our neighbor Elizabeth on Saturday. It's just a couple miles away, which is nice, since there's a gas shortage here. First we went to the petting farm, then we rode rides. Mom was a little hesitant at first, but I loved all but one. I rode some kiddie rides, and the farris wheel, and a tug boat with mom and Elizabeth (that one I did not like and asked when it would be over).

Me, on my first ride by myself.

Before the scary ride started

I was having a great time. But we had to go home when the ride tickets ran out. What a bummer. What's next, a nap and then over to Chad's house for pizza.

Chef Sadie

Today after school, I met my buddies at the Young Chefs Academy. We learned how to make Cinnamon Rolls. I thought the dough was delious before we added the butter (surprise I did not lick it off the brush), and the brown and white sugar and cinnamon mixture, which was even better. I rolled up the dough and cut it with dental floss. It was soo YUMMY warm out of the oven. I would let mom help me cut the dough but I didn't want to share the cinnamon rolls. Thats ok because mom didn't even have to clean up.



My buddies, Hollis, William and Mitchell.

Whose nose and toes?

This is from a book that Sadie's class made. Each child has a picture of their nose and toes and their picture. Sadie got to bring it home to "read" to us. She can name all the kids in her class.
It was Sadie's turn to bring snack to school on Friday. It's a BIG DEAL, because she also got to ring the bell when it was time to clean up. She was so excited when I picked her up from school to tell me all about it.

ELMO LIVE

I went to see Sesame Streete Live "When Elmo Grows Up". Mom and I went with Ms. Laura and Regan. We started off rocky, with Mom forgetting the tickets at home and then again in the car once we got there. But once inside and the lights dimmed, and the characters came on stage, and you could tell how thrilled and excited by the huge smile on my face.

I couldn't wait to see Ernie and Big Bird!

And of course, have pizza afterwards!

First Baby Shower

I was excited today. I told my teacher at school that I was going to a party for Ms. Rachel and she's going to have 2 babies. Ms. Rachel is Michell and Justin's mom. I am so excited for them.

Emma, me, Michell, Justin and Ms Rachel ready for cake. I wanted to know where the candles could be.

Ms. Rachel let me touch her tummy and talk to the babies.
Later, she let me look at her tummy, but I couldn't see the babies.
