Memories from Today:

Was excited to wear my bb-8 shirt and zebra skirt to school today. School was fun. I ended the day on purple.  I finished my math homework before Mommy picked me up from school. I thought it was super easy and even told Mommy it was like kindergarten work. She promised me that it would get harder.

Tori brought materials to make slime to church tonight. We made quite a mess of the table but a lot of fun making our slime. We also ran around and played with my frisbee in the parking lot. Right before we got ready to leave to head home, Tori and I sprayed each other with shaving cream. We made quite a mess of ourselves. It was a lot of fun but Mommy wasn't thrilled that I was so messy and had to get in the car.

Had to come home from church and take a quick shower to get the shaving cream out of my hair and also off of my body. At least we had a lot of fun even if it was messy!

Memories from Today:

I wasn't quite so bright-eyed and bushy-tailed this morning. Daddy walked away while I was getting dressed and I fell back asleep until he came back upstairs. I guess maybe I do need to start going to bed a little bit earlier.

At Mommy's school, I wrote a couple more "good morning" notes to give out to her co-workers. They seem to really like my notes and Mommy really likes and I'm practicing my handwriting and distracting myself a bit.

In gym class today all we did was walk around to music and when the music stopped we had to get on a circle. When I explained this to mommy she was confused and thought we were playing a game like musical chairs but I told her that everyone ended up with a circle and no one was out so it wasn't really a game. I seemed disappointed. I ended the day on pink and overall had a good day. I even had my homework finished by the time mommy came to get me from Mrs. Clark's room.

Daddy cooked a yummy dinner on the grill. I ate quite a bit. We started watching how movie from Redbox, boss baby. We didn't finish the movie but I did get a little bit of play time with my neighbor friend before bed. I also managed to have two helpings of cereal for a bedtime snack.

Memories from Today:

Had a great day at school.  My favorite part of the day was recess and playing with a friend with the same name as me. She is in a different class than me but we have the same recess.  I was excited for computer time, but all we did was watch a video about being safe online.   I told Mommy,  "we've been in school all this time and haven't even been on the computer yet!"  I was excited to have ended the day on "one above pink" nearly the highest you can get!

Mommy took me to Chick-fil-a for dinner and play time.  At home,  I finished my homework. Apple-tini helped with my homework, trying to steal my pencil since she thought it was a toy.

Went to the park where Daddy had a group picnic.  I got to play with Tori.  All was well until I wrecked my bike first time. Then I wrecked it again and then I fell off the merry-go-round. Mommy wonders if I'm going through a growth spurt or was just being clumsy today. Either way no major injuries just a little scrape and lots of tears and whining.

Memories from Today:

I woke up when I was nearly time for Daddy to head out the door to go to church. I was determined to go with him instead of waiting for Mommy. Luckily Daddy was patient as we had to search for my Bible.  I helped collect the offering at church. 

After church, I helped Mommy with some grocery shopping... nit helped as much as was just there.  I was going through a teenager moment,  ear buds in my ears listening to my favorite musician,  Katy Perry!

My neighbor friend and I got to spend lots of time together today. We played in my bedroom, outside, and even got to eat dinner together. I rode my scooter and she wrote my smaller bicycle. When she left for a little bit, I got to ride my big bicycle.

Before bed, most of the neighborhood kids were playing outside. After a little play time, I had to come in and take a shower and have a bedtime snack and get ready for bed. Tomorrow starts the 2nd week of school and homework every night except the weekend.

Memories from Today:

Daddy surprised Mommy and I by bringing us Chick-fil-A for breakfast. I love their chicken minis and don't usually get to eat them. So I was very excited!

Mommy had to work the soccer game at her school so Daddy did a little housework while I relaxed and watched a little television. I spent a little time organizing my room and cleaning off my desk. I was very proud to show it off to Mommy and Daddy.

My spend a little time riding my scooter and visiting my neighbor friends. There was a big event in town with fire trucks and some other things for us to do, so I had to go check it out. I got my face painted, got a snow cone, and got some free stuff. I even got to add my hand print two a truck covered in art.

Before bed, mommy and I played hide-and-seek with the stuffed animals. Also, Daddy and I tried to figure out the AR cube that Miss Pam had given me to try to learn. It was pretty cool, but I'll have to spend some more time with it.

I can't wait for church tomorrow!

Memories from Today:

Woke up excited that it was Game Day and excited to wear my new Cardinal shirt. On the way to school, I spilled jelly from my toast on my shirt and my shorts but Mommy was able to clean it up.

I was a big help to mrs. Clark again today. She called a Lily and I heard Junior hates. We stickered her journals and helped her with other things this morning.

My end of the day on Blue which wasn't as high as I have been getting, but I told Mommy I got a little chatty at the end of the day and got clipped down.

How is excited to be able to go to the game with Mommy. I got to play with Maggie and also my friend Kayla during part of the game. We ran around, drink frozen lemonade, and even got to run on the field after the game. I loved my tattoo on my face and especially loved my face painted Cardinal and my new cheerleader hair bow. I also had red, white, and blue beads. I was full of Cardinal Spirit even though I barely watch the game.

Memories from Today:

Woke up, put on my beautiful dress and boots and headed to school with Mommy.  I told Mommy that I was super cute, especially with the boots.

Helped Mrs. Clark again this morning.  She told Mommy that I'm such a great helper!  I told Mommy that she called me her "little aide."

Ended the day on purple which I seemed pretty happy with, although out of the blue I apologized to Mommy for not getting on pink today.  She wonders if I'm putting too much pressure on myself. 

Mommy and I enjoyed a little Wendy's for dinner... we even got Frostys and of course dipped our fries in it.  After dinner, I rode my bike for a while then watched a tiny bit of tv before bed.  While looking through mt backpack,  Mommy found something drawn/written in the back of a drawing.   She thought it was so cute that she snapped a picture to share!

Tomorrow is Friday,  game day for the Cardinals.   I'm excited to wear my new shirt from Mommy's school!

Memories from Today:

Had to wake up extra early this morning so I could leave with Mommy this morning.  I was so helpful and got ready quickly.  Mommy seemed very surprised!

Had a great day at school.  Got to spend some time with Mrs. Clark and some friends before school even started.  I ended up on pink and lived music class today.  We even had a "snowball fight" with index cards in Miss Henson's class.  I loved it!

Daddy fixed yummy lasagna and garlic  bread for dinner and then I got to play with Tori at church.

I showed of my bicycle skills before it got too late and dark. We sent the video link (https://youtu.be/rGqc8bqt4eY) to Grandma and Grandpa... Grandma said I'm brave and Grandpa was just worried.

Day 4 of school includes art class.   I can't wait!

Memories from Today:

2nd day of school!  Grandma let me sleep in and then took me to Mommy's school so they could walk me to school.  I was super excited,  especially since today was gym class.

Had a great day at school. We read one of my favorite books,  The Kissing Hand.  I ended the day on blue but mentioned to Mommy that my teacher had to talk to me (and seemed a little embarrassed).  Mommy kept pushing for more info until I finally told her that I was talking too much to all the kids in my group.  Mommy started doing the thing she always does where she asks if I understand why it upset the teacher and what I will do differently tomorrow... I hate when she does that because it makes me feel worse, so I asked her to stop but promised tomorrow would be better.

Spent a little time with "duck lady" while Mommy wrapped up a meeting and got a little work done.

I had hoped to go outside,  but the rain started just about the time we finished dinner.  I did get to play hide and seek (inside) with Daddy andI made my own PB&J sandwich for tomorrow's lunch before heading to bed. 

Looking forward to day 3!

Mommy included pics of a couple of pictures (below) first day of school assignments from yesterday since she forgot to share them before.

Memories from Today:

I woke up this morning and got dressed in my beautiful dress to go to school. I was very excited to show Mommy how cute I was when I got to to her school. It was nice of Grandma to let me sleep in and to take me to school with Mommy.  I loved striking a pose for the first day of school pictures.

We had computer class today and got to watch the solar eclipse on the Smartboard. Lucky for me, Mommy and Daddy signed me out of school early so I could watch the eclipse outside with the glasses that the school gave me.

Grandma fixed a delicious dinner and then I got to go outside and play with my friend. Daddy even took me across to the parking lot to ride my bicycle while Grandma and Mommy were away.

I watched a brief lightning storm from one cloud in the sky before getting ready for bed. My clothes are laid out along with my jewelry for tomorrow so I can be extra fashionable for day 2.

Memories from Today:

Went to church early with Daddy after a few minutes of cuddle time in be with Mommy. I had fun at Sunday School then played with one of the church boys during the morning meeting after visiting Mommy and Grandma who came during Sunday School.  I enjoyed a delicious Moon Pie treat.  Delicious!

We went to Ruby Tuesday for lunch.  I ate lots of little tomatoes and also ate all of my pasta! 

Came home with Daddy while Mommy ran to work to take care of a few last minute things for tomorrow.  When she finished her work, Grandma, Mommy,  and I went to Sweet Frog.  I took a few Snapchat pictures there and even drew my own diagram of tomorrow's partial solar eclipse woth chalk on their board. 

I got to play with my neighbor friend for a little while.  We both rode scooters.  I had Mommy's phone in my stuffed animal bag hanging from the handlebars. It was loudly playing my favorite Katy Perry songs soI could sing and dance while scooting.

After my shower,  Mommy cut my toenails and painted them. Then she stated on my fingernails. Somehow my finger got cut... ouch!  It didn't help that I ripped my hand away when it started to hurt.  Two fingernails did not get cut and none of them got painted.  Oh well!

I set out my cute outfit for the first day of school tomorrow.   I'm so excited!!!

Memories from Today:

Loved waking up in my own bed this morning... and eating cocoa krispies for breakfast.   Yum!

Momny and Grandma left for our twin cousins' birthday party which was near Baltimore.  I chose to go to my friend Payton's birthday party instead (with dad's help getting there).  We had a great time making crafts,  playing, swimming,  and eating snacks. It was so much fun!

One month until my 7th birthday!!!  I can't wait!

Memories from Today:

Multiple bowls of cereal again for breakfast and then a bowl of cinnamon apples in the car on the way out of town.  Was so excited to be heading back home to Mommy and Daddy.

Got home in time to relax and play with my pets a few minutes before getting my clothes changed for orientation.  

We stopped to eat dinner on the way andI saw a friend from last year's class.  I would leave him alone... kept waving at him and talking. 

At my first grade orientation,  I met my teacher, Ms. Henson, sat in my desk,  looked at my cubby, and learned a little about 1st grade.  Afterward,  I had to stop and visit some of my specials teachers and Mrs. Clark.  I miss her and hope I get to see her lots even though I'll be in the other hallway this year.  It sounds like this year will be lots of fun!

Can't wait for a birthday party tomorrow with my friend!!!

Memories from Today:

Woke grandma up so she could fix me breakfast. After my three breakfasts we had a relaxing morning. We just had a couple of errands to run. After we got through I made a fort in the family room and did fashion pet makeovers.

Then grandma and I went to Camden Park. Even though it was hot we had a great time. We even rode the log flume three times. I was finally tall enough to ride the flying ride. It was great.
After we got home I took a shower. It made me feel so much better.

After my bath grandma and I played Clue Jr and then it was time for snack, medicine, teeth brushing and bed. I can't wait until tomorrow when I get to see Apple, mommy and daddy, and the rest of my "brothers and sisters."
