Memories from Today:

Woke up in the middle of the night and was saying "Mommy."  When she came to check on me, I asked her for popcorn.  She realized I was talking in my sleep.  I ended up in her bed for the rest of the night.  It must've been comfy since I slept until 10:00. 

While Mommy was at work,  Daddy took me to the park and I made friends to play with.  Back at home, we played Mario Cart and watched tv until time to pack for Ms. Kelly's.   Mommy and Daddy went to a concert, so I spent the evening with Ms. Kelly and the girls.

Memories from Today:

Had a horrible nightmare in the middle of the night and ended up in bed with Mommy.  

After waking up and getting out of bed, I enjoyed another restful day and afternoon with Daddy until Mommy got home from work.

Mommy took me to the Berkeley County Youth Fair tonight. We met Gabriel and his mom there.   It was amazing!!!  We rode lots of rides (our favorite was the tilt-a-whirl), watched some bull riding, ate ice cream, and had a ball!

Memories from Today:

Mommy had to work again... Boo!  So Daddy and I ran errands and hung out at home.

Once Mommy got home, I showed her a robot I had made her from a toilet paper tube. 

I played a few of my learning games on the computer while Mommy cooked dinner and then Daddy took me to the park to play for a little while. It was fun! 

After a shower and after I tucked my dolls in for the night, it was time to read in bed until I fell asleep.

Memories from Today:

Took my American Girl doll to church. The ladies there told me it was very responsible of me to bring my kid to church.  I missed Tori and the K sisters today, but still had fun in Junior Soldiers class.

After lunch, Mommy and I watched a movie on Netflix then played with my American Girl dolls.  She even helped me build a fort.

We ended the night with Mario Cart and Harry Potter.

Memories from Today:

Let Mommy sleep in a little this morning while I watched tv. 

After she got up, we ran a few errands.  We picked up our pottery that we painted last week.  I was so happy with the way my kitty bank turned out!  I can't wait to put money in it!  We also stopped by the park for a little play time.  I found a painted rock and his another one, so it was fun!

Spent the evening playing video games and hanging out at home.

Memories from Today:

Spent the day with Daddy while Mommy worked.  We did a little grocery shopping and delivered some papers.  Back at home, we played Mario Cart and Just Dance.   I also did a couple of chores (swept the floor and put away our shoes) and played with my American girl dolls.

Mommy came home from work and wasn't feeling well. I let her rest so she would feel better. 

After dinner and some more play time, Mommy took me to bed.  I tucked in my American Girl dolls, "ironed" their clothes to get them ready for tomorrow (with my mini ironing board), and then got in bed and read by the light of my neon unicorn until I fell asleep.

Memories from Today:

Spent the day with Daddy at home while Mommy worked.

When she got home, she found me playing Mario Cart, trying to get better.  She decided it was a good idea and practiced also.

I played some of my school computer games then Mommy and I raced against each other on Mario Cart while she fixed dinner. 

After dinner, Mommy and I played the Slap card game.  I won!  I also cleaned my room.  I told Mommy I put some stuffies in my chair to make my room "more welcoming."

Mommy went out with friends and I relaxed and headed to bed.

Memories from Today:

Woke up and Mommy had already gone to work.  It's not fair that she has to go back to work so soon!

Daddy and I spent the day together at home.  I hadn't even gotten dressed when Mommy got home from work!  I gave her a huge hug since I was happy to see her.

Mommy, Daddy, and I went to church and then came home and played Mario Cart and Just Dance together before bedtime. It was super fun!

Memories from Today:

Had a nice sleep in my own bed!  I watched a little tv this morning and relaxed.

Mommy took me to Chick-fil-A for lunch and play.   It was fun!  I even found two rocks and hid two others. I even decided to give the two rocks I had found away to another family that was there, but not before having Mommy take a picture of me with them.

Mommy and I went to the new pottery place in town.  I painted a kitty bank and Mommy painted a small bud vase.  It was fun but I got frustrated at the end when I was touching up the kitty's face and neck and the orange color wasn't quite even.  I blamed Mommy since she suggested I add more paint to the neck.

Spent the rest of the evening at home. I had play time with two of the neighbor kids, played a card game with Mommy, and read a chapter of Harry Potter with Daddy.

Memories from Today:

Woke up at camp, packed, and headed toward the house.  We dropped off Alexis at her house on the way.   Daddy and I stopped at Arby's for lunch. They were out of kids toys, so I got a milkshake instead.  I was very happy about it!

As soon as I got home, I ran and gave Mommy a huge hug!   I missed her!  Camp was so much fun and I'm glad the rain held off until we were driving home.

Mommy took me to the park, but due to the recent rain, there weren't many people there.  I was disappointed.  Mommy and I ended the evening with a little shopping and relaxing.

Oh, and I almost forgot... Mommy got me the coolest toy from a yard sale while she was in Ohio.  It is a Project MC 2 journal and bracelet that opens the journal.  It also talks.  I love it!!!

Alyson's Exciting Day

·I looked for bugs and crayfish under the bridge at camp. I found a large painted rock. I had daddy take my picture and I left it for someone else to find.

·I played in the river today with my friend. We hopped from rock to rock and then went swimming in a small pool. It was a lot of fun.

·While daddy played volleyball, the little kids had a water gun fight. We had a small pool to keep filling up our guns. Then, we chased each other around the field.

·I finished the evening with watching Pete's Dragon under the stars with my friend. I let her share my blankets.

·After lunch, daddy took me swimming. I only stayed a little while because it was cold.

·After dinner, we had water games in the field. I played kickball and caught water balloons. We also had a slip and slide.

Alyson's Exciting Day

·Daddy woke me up around 8:00 this morning. We packed for camp and then picked up Alexis. We had to head back home to finish packing a little more, then we drove forever to get to Cowen. We did stop at a few yard sales along the way to make it less boring.

·We arrived at camp with just enough time to unpack and go to dinner. We had spaghetti! Then, I rode my bike around camp and played with new friends.

·We had a carnival for evening activity. It was okay. I got frustrated with the crowds and lines for games. I also didn't win every time. Campfire was a lot of fun, though.

·After campfire, I rode my bike some more, and then played flashlight tag with the older kids until 11:00. Daddy said I can get up with the sun and go play some more.

Alyson's Exciting Day

·I woke daddy up around 8:30 and he made me waffles. After a couple episodes of Barbie, I helped daddy fold clothes.

·We got dressed and went shopping for snacks for Family Camp this weekend at Cowen. Then, we picked up a pizza and headed home to eat lunch and say goodbye to momma. She is attending her cousin's retirement ceremony. He has served over 20 years in the Air Force.

·Daddy and I played some Lego Batman and then went out to run more errands. When we got back, I played with several of the neighbor children.

·Since we finished the game, daddy and I started watching Pirates of the Caribbean. We had to start on the third one because we couldn't find one or two. Then we started packing for our trip tomorrow. We finished the evening by video calling momma. I spent most of the time playing with filters on Messenger with my cousin Izzy.

Memories from Today:

Daddy woke me up a little early this morning, but I didn't mind since I was excited for my adventure with Mrs. Clark. 

During our adventure, we went to Antietam battlefield where I got to become a Junior Ranger.  I even had to take an oath.  I got a certificate, patch, and badge. I was very proud! 

We went to lunch at Olive Garden where I worked on my "homework." 

We went shopping.  I helped her and she got me a huge bucket of Double Bubble bubble gum! 

We ended our time together with ice cream.   I love spending time with her!

Back home with Mommy, I helped her make desserts for a party and then we played Go Fish until Daddy got home.  I spent the evening playing video games with Daddy and helping him play trivia.  It was fun!

Memories from Today:

After a restful morning, Mommy decided we should go for a hike,  even if it was raining off and on.

She drove us to the local nature preserve where we hiked two different trails. I loved it... except all of the spider webs that we walked through.  I was even okay walking through them until I actually saw a spider on one that was in my face.  I screamed bloody murder!  The rest of the hike, I let Mommy lead the way to break up the spider webs.  Along the way we saw a few cardinals, a woodpecker, a fawn, and lots of mushrooms!  It was great!

We stopped and ate dinner, went to Goodwill where I tried on what Mommy called "Punky Brewster" shoes," found sandals, and 28 books that I loved!!!  Mommy then went to Nutter's for ice cream... yum! 

The rest of the evening was spent playing video games with Daddy and taking a shower.

I can't wait to spend tomorrow with Mrs. Clark for our adventure!
