Alyson's Most Memorable Events of the Day:

• I once again did not want to wake up this morning.  When Mommy came downstairs, she found me eating breakfast cuddled under the blanket all comfortable.  I would have rather stayed at home, but couldn't.
• When Mommy picked me up from Ms. Cheri's, we went to her school so I could help hand out prizes to the big kids.  I love helping deliver the candy.  All of the kids like me and give me fist pumps and call me cute.  I like them!
• When we got home, we found a Dora blanket attached to the door.  I LOVE IT!  Thanks Carol!
• After dinner, I played a little with my toys, rode my scooter, then colored and played with the iPad.  Mommy loves the serious, focused look I get on my face when I color. I took turns sitting on the couch with Daddy and sitting in the dining room with Mommy while she worked on her homework for her classes. 
• At bedtime, Mommy took me upstairs and we read one of my favorite books that I hadn't read in a very long time, Pete the Cat.  I love that book.  I even had Mommy read it twice so I could sing along the second time.  I also picked out a book about insects and spiders for Mommy to read to me.  We read, looked at pictures, and talked about ants, bees, ladybugs, wasps, grasshoppers, spiders, dragonflies, fireflies, and even more bugs.  It was so much fun to read it with Mommy.
• I was so excited to fall asleep with my Dora blanket. 
• Mommy said something about waking up to snow tomorrow.  There wasn't anything right before bed, but she says there should be snow by the time I wake up.  I guess we will see what happens while I am sleeping.

Alyson's Most Memorable Events of the Day:

• I was so tired I cuddled up with Daddy and hid my eyes from the light this morning.  I was not ready to be awake...  Mondays are rough!
• On the way to Ms. Cheri's, Mommy and I took turns pointing out the different shapes (mostly road signs) we saw around us.  We also talked about the different colors too. 
• I had fun playing with Keegan and Payton today but only took an hour nap instead of more. 
• Once at home, I couldn't wait to see Daddy.  I missed him today!
• While watching a show on the television, I decided to climb up onto my table and sit on top of it, right in front of the tv.  I'm so silly!
• Mommy and I played with my neon sunglasses.  We took turns wearing them and I even took a picture of Mommy with them on top of her head. 
• I helped Mommy fix dinner.  While she was cooking, I said I needed to use the big girl potty.  I told Mommy "I done, I tried."  I have been asking to and trying to use the potty more and more the past few days, even letting little farts while on the toilet, but doing nothing more.  Mommy and Daddy are proud of me for trying. 
• I love to "draw shapes" on the computer with Mommy using Paint.  I kept wanting to draw arrows tonight, especially little ones.
• Mommy said I was wild tonight.  I kept rolling all over her, kicking my legs and not staying still.  I had so much energy!  I think I was exhausting Mommy!

Alyson's Most Memorable Events of the Day:

• I slept until 7:00 then decided it was time for Mommy and I to get up.  After breakfast, we cuddled on the couch and watched Diego for a little while until Daddy got up.  I put a pillow on my head being silly and then all of my hair stood straight up.  Mommy said it was static electricity, whatever that means....
• I had a nice bath before church, then wore my cute black shirt with lace on the bottom (kinda looked like a tu-tu) and red pants.  I thought I looked like a princess.
• I had fun playing in the nursery at church.
• Daddy drove us to Hagerstown.  I decided I needed a nap on the way.
• After lunch and my nap, Daddy took us to Monkey Joe's to play.  I love Monkey Joes!
• I did great on all of the slides and climbing all of the walls.  Toward the end of our time there, I decided to try a wall that was a little harder to climb.  Mommy had to take her shoes off and help me figure it out.  I had so much fun I had to do it again (with Mommy's help). 
• I met Monkey Joe.  I was a little scared of him at first, even ran away, but once Mommy talked to me, I ended up giving him a high five then I didn't want him to go.
• One of my favorites to play on today was the pirate ship.  I kept saying "Arg Matey" while playing on it.  Grandma and Grandpa would have been proud of me.
• Mommy says I spent most of my time playing there with my tongue out like Daddy... I never noticed.
• After returning home, I had to relax... Monkey Joe's is exhausting!  I did play with Gemma and my tent as well as my dinosaurs and cups (fixing Mommy and Daddy "drinks"), but mostly we relaxed.  While Mommy was doing dishes, I decided to wear her Mountaineer hat into the kitchen and ask her to take my picture.  I'm such a ham!  Luckily I'm so cute!

Alyson's Most Memorable Events of the Day:

• I woke up at about 7:30 this morning.  Daddy and I ate and played.
• When Mommy woke up, Daddy and Dresden left.  They said he was going away and wouldn't come back and had me give him a big hug goodbye.  Mommy seemed a little sad after he left.
• When Daddy got home, I decided to model Mommy's boots and Daddy's boots.  I even had both pairs on at one point.  I also drew about 10 pictures on little pieces of paper and put each one on the fridge with a magnet. 
• I took a 2 hour nap and when Mommy came to wake me up, I was under my pillow. 
• After finally getting dressed for the day, we went to Buffalo Wild Wings to eat dinner since Daddy had one a gift certificate playing trivia last week.  It was yummy!  I even showed the waiter my drawing.  He liked it!
• I read 4 Dr. Seuss books with Daddy before bed since today is his actual birthday.

Alyson's Most Memorable Events of the Day:

• While Daddy was getting me dressed this morning, I played hide and go seek with he and Mommy.  I hid behind the bed, under the bed, and behind the chair. 
• Donut Friday!  I love Fridays!  I really loved my blueberry cake donut!
• Keegan and I played at Ms. Cheri's but Payton wasn't there today.  We missed her.
• After dinner, I played a little hide and go seek again with Mommy and Daddy.  I hid under the blankets, even once had my fingers sticking out waving asking Mommy and Daddy to find me. 
• I rode my airplane, played in my tunnel, and colored on the iPad. 
• I also watched an episode of Bo on the Go and even played along.  I ran, marched, and jumped up and down with the show.  It was so much fun!
• Right before bed, Mommy and I read four different Dr. Seuss books.  She said it was Dr. Seuss Day, I said Dr. Sneuss Day.  One of my favorite books is The Foot Book, so we had to read it not just once but twice.  My favorite part of the book is "Up in the Air Feet."  I always lay on back and put my feet in the air for that part.  We also read The Cat in the Hat Comes Back, I'm Not Going to Get Up Today! and Green Eggs and Ham.  It was so much fun!
