Memories from Today:

Dressed "to impress" in my owl dress, leggings, pink boots, and denim jacket. 

Had a great day at school!  I love Tuesdays, music day!  Today we learned about the percussion family and we even got to play a percussion instrument, "similar to a xylophone with stairs" is what I told Mommy.

After school, I played with a few friends at Mommy's school.  I was the oldest, so I set up "centers" for them... on with Mommy's iPad, a coloring station, and a station at the dry erase board.  I even got snacks for everyone.

Mommy and I walked around the outside of the school building to enjoy the warm weather.   Along our walk we found "sidewalk bugs" and student-made weather instruments.  I had to look at them closely and even tried standing some of the lightweight back up.  The wind wasn't helping.

After dinner with Daddy, I went back to Mommy's school with her... she had to work the basketball game.  I helped!  I also played with my adult friends who work at Mommy's school.   Both chase me, play with and tease me.  They are silly!  Had a meltdown when Daddy picked me up to take me home after his meeting.  I wanted to stay to watch the next game and they wouldn't let me.

A few funny pictures... I held up Mommy's artificial flowers to my face and said "I'm the Statue of Liberty!"  I also showed Mommy my silly face through the glass block in Mommy's school cafeteria... better than Snapchat!

Memories from Today:

Sunglasses day at school for School Counselor Week!  I loved wearing my shades! 

Enjoyed school today and even got to dig for "fossils" on the playground at recess.

Mommy picked me up and I helped her put away some supplies in the STEM classroom.  I also helped her cut out some hearts for her school and for my class craft for our Valentine's Day party.

Mommy and I stopped by the park to play since the weather was so nice.  I played tag with new friends, climbed, and acted silly.  It was so nice!

Daddy cooked one of my faves, spaghetti.  I ate a lot (though not the 4 helpings I told Mommy I would eat).

Mommy and I planned out my outfit for "dress to impress day" tomorrow.

A few funny things I have said lately: 
I have been calling my valentines "valentations" and my easel a "weasel."

Memories from Today:

Entertained Mommy after Daddy got a head start to church. 

Wore my Texas Ranger shirt to church and had Mommy put my hair in a ponytail.  I knew I looked cute!

Had fun playing with the girls at church.  The kids were each given a "fruit of the spirit."  Mine was "joy" which people thought was appropriate for me. 

Lunch at "little piggy" and then I helped Mommy with her grocery shopping.  I ended up with two extra quarters at Aldi which I was so excited about!!!

Spent the afternoon helping with a little housework and then spent the evening watching a little of the Super Bowl.  I was more excited by the Puppy Bowl, the Kitty Halftime Show, and Lady Gaga's halftime performance.   I even danced and sang along with her (didn't really know the words but tried)... I took the Christmas lights from my teepee to decorate my "stage" and even ran to my room to change into a beautiful dress for my performance.

Tomorrow is sunglasses day at school... hopefully it will be sunny!

Memories from Today:

Slept in Mommy's bed last night and didn't cough as much as she feared.  I woke up refreshed and ready for a new day with minor coughing and snottiness. 

When I thought it was time to wake up Mommy, I kept going in her room talking to her even setting timers in her phone for when she should get out of bed.  I did bring her breakfast in bed which she thought was super sweet.  I entertained myself downstairs watching television with Daddy, doing a little housework, and taking new Snapchat pictures just for fun.

Mommy and I organized some toys, completed my hedgehog pillow craft, and played a few games.  

Mommy and I never got out of our pajamas and it was great! 

I made up songs to sing, did magic shows for Mommy, and pretended to swing from one balloon string to another like a monkey would travel through the forest. 

Church tomorrow... I can't wait!

Memories from Today:

Woke up coughing a little bit but toughed it out and wen to school.  I wore my red shirt for heart awareness day and I even got to make the shape of a heart with my classmates. 

Daddy picked me up and I was coughing more.  By the time Mommy got home, I was coughing a lot and I had already had a breathing treatment.

Daddy saw a kindergarten fill in the blank list on Facebook and asked me to complete the sentences.  Here were my responses:

1. You can't teach an old dog ... "how to learn."
2. If you lie down with dogs, you'll  ... "get dirty."
3. You can lead a horse to water, but ... "you can't lead it to food."
4. It's always darkest before  ... "it is light."
5. A bird in the hand  ... "can sit in your hand."
6. Children should be seen and not  ... "mean."

Then I made up my own saying, "You can eat cake but you can't poop it."

Daddy also decided to have me complete another one...  Birds of a feather... "fly... or sing... whatever!"

I played with a few more Snapchat filters... I really liked the underwater one!

I got to sleep with Mommy since I wasn't feeling well.  Hopefully we get some sleep!

Memories from Today:

Tired but excited to wish everyone a Happy Groundhog's Day!

Made some new notes for some people who work with Mommy's. 

At school, we made a groundhog on a popsicle stick coming out of the ground.  I picked out a new library book and had a great day, until right before pick up when I complained to my teacher that my ear was hurting.

Daddy picked me up and I fell asleep in his truck on the way home.  He sat outside with me to let me sleep some more. 

Spent the evening resting on the couch cuddling and watching Mia and Me.  We also constructed three-dimensional shapes from a STEM kit Mommy got at her conference.  I loved it!

Memories from Today:

Wore a fuzzy warm sweatshirt this morning.   On the way to school, Mommy taught me about odd and even numbers.  She seemed very proud of me that I was identifying odd and even numbers on signs and cars we saw going down the road.  Everyone at Mommy's school said I looked super cute and fashionable in my outfit.

School was fun!  In art class we colored Egyptian necklaces.   Next week we get to add jewels to it and eventually can bring it home.

I got bored after school while Mommy was still working.  My friends weren't there. 

I got another Book it certificate for reading, so that was dinner.  I loved having my very own pizza!  Of course I had pineapple on it... yum!

At church, I was bored so I started measuring things.  Mommy had me draw a picture of what I was measuring and then put the "number" beside it.  She said I did great.  Daddy had built a screen for the kids at church.  We had fun trying it out and I even danced behind it.  It was super fun!  I also enjoyed dancing with a leftover fabric scrap.  I spun in circles and called myself a winter tornado.
