Highlights of the Day:

• Couldn't go to sleep last night... kept saying I was scared and even woke up whining during the night.  I finally did get some sleep but morning still came way to early.
• I wore a super cute pink shirt and jeans to school today and told Mommy to be sure to dress warm since it was super cold outside this morning. 
• I took my dog named Jingle to school today for show and tell.
• After dinner, Mommy and I played hide-n-seek and upset Indy, even though we weren't counting out loud.  He really doesn't like that game.
• We all played Mario for a bit before bed.
• Tomorrow is the first day of December and it's getting close to Christmas.  I can't wait!
• (Mommy forgot to take pictures today)   :(

Highlights of the Day:

• Got dressed and ready for church and said goodbye to Grandma and Grandpa.  Though I was in the middle of a bit of a meltdown when the left, leading to forced hugs and whining, I really enjoyed their visit.  I can't wait to see them again at Christmas!
• I had fun at church and felt super cute in my black boots and striped dress.  Once again, Mommy forgot to take a full-length picture of my cuteness.
• We ate lunch at Applebees (my idea...  I told them "I read it" (the sign)).  While waiting for our food, I found a few words in the word search and learned how to do Sudoku.  I finished it all by myself.  (Mommy said Grandpa would be proud!)  I liked Mommy's lunch more than mine and she ate my salad, so I guess it was a fair trade.  I was also excited to see Tori there.
• Mommy and I took a long nap and then spent the evening resting.  I didn't cough as much this evening, so hopefully my body is fighting and I won't get sick. 
• Daddy and I ended the evening playing Mario together.  I'm getting better, at least I think I am.

Highlights of the Day:

• Woke up and didn't even have to get dressed before heading out since we were going to see the movie, The Polar Express and pajamas are completely appropriate for the movie.  There was a conductor who punched our golden ticket, cookies, and hot cocoa.  I was excited that Gabriel, Golden, and their family was there with us too.  I also got a super cool silver bell that I loved!
• We did a quick change and went to Buffalo Wild Wings to meet Grandpa to watch the WVU game.  We ate, cheered, and had fun playing the claw machine.
• At home, we took a nap to rest up for the evening.
• After waking, Mommy, Grandma and I met Gabriel and his Mommy downtown for the Christmas parade.  We had so much fun!  Mommy bought me a light up stick and we got one for Gabriel too.  I came home with more candy and a cranky attitude.  After my meltdown, I was happy the rest of the evening relaxing at home.  Mommy got me a few things for my small Christmas tree.  I decorated a little before bed and will decorate more tomorrow.  I'm so excited for Christmas!

Highlights of the Day:

• Woke up when I heard Grandma come out of her room this morning.  She and I snuck downstairs and watched the movie Home while everyone else slept a little longer.
• As soon as Mommy, Grandma, and I got ready, we picked up Carol and went Black Friday shopping.  We had so much fun!  I helped them pick out clothes and toys for their Secret Santa girls and I was a big helper.  They all bought me little gifts to thank me for being a big girl.  I bought myself a matchbox car with my money. 
• After lunch, we continued shopping and even went to the mall.  I love the mall!  While shopping and walking around the mall, I told Mommy I wanted to get my ears pierced.  Mommy and Daddy had said, when I decided I was ready to get them done that I could and that Mommy would get hers re-pierced with me.  I got the cutest sparkly rainbow daisy earrings and was such a big girl.  Everyone seemed surprised at how well I did.  I got two lollipops and a sticker.  Mommy was a big girl too and I tried to give her a lollipop, but she didn't want one.  We stopped to visit with Santa and I told him that I wanted a pony, a horse, and a unicorn.  Mrs. Clause gave me a hug and a toy bendable elf.
• Back at home, I played on my swing, ate dinner, played Trouble with Mommy, played on the iPad, then Mommy gave me a new pair of pjs for me to wear to see Polar Express tomorrow.  I can't wait to see it with Gabriel and our families.  It's going to be great!

Yummy Peeps!

Highlights of the Day:

• I got to sleep in today because there was no school. I slept almost until 8:15! Daddy was happy to get up with me to fix me breakfast. He peeled a tangerine for me, but then I decided that I didn't want it. When mommy woke up, I ate some of her cereal.
• I helped mommy and daddy cook today. I started to get frustrated that mommy wouldn't let me cut vegetables with a sharp knife. She did let me scoop them into a bowl. I also helped with the deviled eggs.
• In addition to cooking, I also helped clean the house in preparation for grandma and grandpa coming to visit. It was hard work so I started singing, "It's a hard knock life for us." Mommy thought that was very funny.
• After grandma and grandpa showed up, we had a big dinner. I ate enough that I got to have dessert, a piece of pumpkin pie with cool whip on top. It was delicious!
• I laid around after dinner and watched a little bit of Home before bed. I didn't fight daddy when I went to bed because I know that tomorrow is going to be a busy day shopping for four little girls with grandma for Secret Santa.

Highlights of the Day:

• I got to sleep in a little this morning.  Mommy was still sleeping and Daddy wasn't in much of a hurry which was strange.  I'm wondering if they even had to work today...
• I had fun at school with my friends.  We played and Ms. Shellon even braided my hair.  I loved it! 
• Mommy and Daddy picked me up and I couldn't wait to show them all of my art work from the day.
• At home, we had a little snack and rested a bit and I showed Mommy a few tricks on the swing set in the backyard (in the dark) before heading to Buffalo Wild Wings for trivia.  It was fun!  I got to visit with my friends that are there a lot.  I kept showing off for them and invited myself to their table over and over again.  I kept using my fries to pretend to be different animals, two out of my mouth for a walrus and one out of my forehead for a unicorn, and so on.  They thought I was hilarious!  Mommy taught me a little science with the straw in the water cup.  She showed me how you could put your finger on the end of the straw to "pick up" the water in the straw.  I figured out for myself that you can drink it that way.  I also "hypothesized" what would happen if you turned the straw upside down with your finger on it and water in it.  Mommy loves that I love science.  She said "Science Rules!" and I threw my arm up in the air.  I asked her to say it again and again put my arm in the air.  Daddy said he was in big trouble since Mommy and I are "two peas in a pod."

Highlights of the Day:

• Another early morning, but at least I looked cute in my pink dress.  I even wore leggings with my pink boots to school.  Everyone loved my outfit!  We didn't switch "jobs" today at school, I told Mommy I would have to remind the teacher tomorrow, but she said since it is a short week that we might not switch this week.
• We had a restful evening at home.  I ate lots of Ramen noodles, but no sandwich tonight.  I finished all of my noodles so I ate some of Mommy's too.
• I played on the iPad a bit, watched some My Little Pony, and played with Mommy and Daddy (and some by myself).  I also took lots of selfies with Mommy's phone.  While running through the house, I tripped on the floor grate and hurt my pinky toe a little, so of course I screamed, "I need a Band-Aid or an ice pack!"  It even left a red mark on my toe.  It should get me some sympathy points for another day or two. 
• I was determined to wear my horse pajamas yet again tonight.  Mommy thinks I might need an intervention since those are the only pjs I want to wear.
