Alyson's Exciting Events of the Day:

• I got up a little before 9:00.  The rain helped me sleep in.
• I ate 6 mini waffles with dip and a banana and milk.
• I played with Grandpa until lunch time. I had half a ham sandwich with lettuce and mayo and Cheetos and also had juice to drink.
• My nap was over an hour then ate another yummy banana.
• I played with Grandpa and Lucy until Grandma came home from work.
• Grandma changed me into jeans and my mountaineer shirt to wear to Dave and Andi's.  It's a little cool this evening because it's raining.
• We went to dinner at Grazianio's.  When Grandma asked if I wanted spaghetti or rigatoni, I said "Toni!"  I think I ended up with more on my face than in my stomach.
• I jumped up and down and danced while Grandpa's band played music and even helped him play drums.  It was so much fun!

Alyson's Exciting Events of the Day:

• SI woke up a couple of times during the night. Grandpa was not sure if I had a bad dream or was just checking to see if he was still there.
• I woke up around 9:00 then had strawberries and cream oatmeal. I let grandpa feed it to me so I didn't get it in my hair like yesterday.
• Grandpa and I went to pick up Gracie from the groomers. When they got back I wanted lunch. SI had 1/2 ham sandwich and mandarin oranges then had honey grahams for dessert. 
• Then I napped about an hour and half.
• At one point Grandpa asked me if I was ready to get up and I said no so I slept s little more.
• I played after I got up from my nap until Grandma got home. Once Grandma got home she took me to the grocery store to get a few things. We had to make sure that we had plenty of bananas so we got a couple more.  I was quick to point out where the bananas were found in the store, just in case Grandma didn't know.
• After the store Grandpa fixed three cheese pasta with ground beef and broccoli.
• While we were waiting on dinner Grandma gave me a tea set with cups, saucers, spoons, creamer, sugar bowl, and teapot. We played pretend tea party.
• Mommy also called while we were waiting for dinner.  I was so happy to talk to her.  I kept saying "Hi Mommy!" and when Mommy would say "Love You," I would kiss the phone. 
• I ate my dinner with some pears.
• After dinner I had a yummy frozen fruit bar. It was yummy!
• Once I finished dinner and dessert, Grandma painted my fingernails and toenails light pink.
• When Grandma tried to send an email to Mommy to tell her what I did today, I was being a monkey climbing on the couched and caused Grandma to hit send before she was finished so she had to send another email.
• I changed into pjs and had breathing treatment, then chased Lucy while waiting until bedtime.

Alyson's Exciting Events of the Day:

• I got up at 8:00 today.  Grandpa heard me hollering for "dog."
• I ate bananas and cream oatmeal.  Grandpa fed the oatmeal to me since I couldn't eat with my hands.  I kept saying "done."
• Grandpa got me dressed and then we met grandma and went to lunch.
• I had grilled cheese with ketchup dip and fruit for lunch.
• I visited Grandma's work where I rode in the elevator and met a lot of people.  A lot of them gave me snacks. I kept saying "see people."
• I took a little nap in the car and then a little nap once Grandpa took me in the house.
• When Grandma got home and changed clothes we went and met Andi and Dave for dinner. I had a cheese quesadilla and fries with dip. We asked the server if she had any fruit because Grandma and Grandpa forgot to take some with me. The waitress found an orange slice, strawberries, cherries, pineapple, and kiwi. It was delicious!  I also had some blueberry fruit bites that someone from Grandma's office had given me earlier.  They turned my tongue blue and were very yummy!

Alyson's Exciting Events of the Day:

• I woke up a little before eight yelling for Lucy. Lucy was ready to go get her out of bed.  
• I had waffles and  bananas for breakfast.
• I ate chicken and pasta for lunch with banana and mandarin oranges.
• After lunch I took a nap for a little over an hour.
• I played with my shopping cart once again today (while drinking),,, Mommy has warned me about drinking and shopping, but I'm not sure why she worries about it.  I also colored and even tried coloring with my toes, but that didn't work out so well.
• Grandpa got a little mad when I threw a cell phone at Lucy.  I'm glad I didn't hurt her.
• After Grandma got home, Grandpa went outside and made noise ( he was mowing and weed eating.)
• I got to talk to Mommy on the phone again today.  I told her "Grandpa outside" and said "fun" when Mommy asked if I was having fun.  I gave her a kiss on the phone when she said she loved me. 
• While he was outside I told grandma "eat" and when she asked if I was hungry, I repeated "hungry."
• I had spaghetti and mandarin oranges. 
• When Grandpa came inside I started asking him for banana so I had 1/2 banana and some watermelon.
• I had a fun bath with lots of splashing and then had my breathing treatment.  I watched the history channel (Valkyrie) with Grandpa during my treatment.

(Note from Mommy:  Thanks to Grandma and Grandpa for the pics and narration of the day's events for the blog)

Alyson's Exciting Events of the Day:

• When Grandpa woke up this morning at 10:00, he was surprised that he hadn't heard me yet.  He found me playing in the crib with bear.
• Grandpa and I played with my kitchen set, shopping cart, laptop, and even a sprinkler today.  Grandma joined us after work too. 
• During dinner, I didn't eat too much until Grandma gave me oranges...  I cleaned the bowl and even licked it to be sure I got all the juice too.  While I was eating, Mommy called.  I was so excited to talk to her, but kept holding the phone away from my face thinking I was on speaker phone. 
• I finished the evening with my breathing treatment with my fishy face mask.

Alyson's Exciting Events of the Day:

I woke up this morning and we finished packing our bags. Mommy says we are going on a trip and that I'll get to see Grandma and Grandpa. I can't wait!

I gave Gemma a big hug since I knew I would miss her for a few days.

Carol picked us up and we headed to Morgantown where we got to eat Five Guys food and got to hang out with Alex. Grandma and Grandpa showed up at Alex's house and I was so happy to see them. I didn't understand why Lucy did not come with them.

I took a nap most of the way to Grandma and Grandpa's house and asked for Mommy a couple of times. When Grandma asked me where Mommy was and I said, "back there." I took my shoes off during the trip then tried to put my shoes back on all by myself without much success.

At Grandma and Grandpa's house I found a shOpping cart toy along with food and a kitchen. Grandma said I am not the best driver but I had fun.

Tomorrow I get to spend the day with Grandpa while Grandma goes to work. Mommy thinks I'm going to be very spoiled when she sees me again Saturday.

(Note from Mommy: I'm trying the Blogger app for the first time on the iPad and I have no idea how this will look.)

Alyson's Exciting Events of the Day:

• I slept until nearly 8:00 this morning.  
• Mommy and I had donuts, milk, and a banana for breakfast. 
• I helped Mommy organize, pack up, and deliver our recycling to Grapevine Road today.  I love helping (most of the time!).
• I started falling asleep while eating lunch in my high chair, so Mommy went ahead and carried me upstairs to bed. 
• When I woke up from my nap, I helped Mommy do some things around the house (shredding old bills and receipts, laundry, dishes, etc.).  While Mommy was shredding, she found a page of stickers that kept me entertained for quite a while.  We took breaks to play with my blocks and ride my airplane, and of course took a break for dinner.  Mommy fixed mac-n-cheese, corn on the cob, fresh squash, and even a biscuit.  Yummy!  I also ate some mandarin oranges too!
• I was a little rough with Gemma today.  I kept hugging her, laying on her, sitting on her, and even kissed her.  Mommy says she is the most patient cat in the world. 
• Mommy told me I would see Grandma and Grandpa tomorrow.  I'm so excited!
