Memories from Today:

Early morning, but since I was excited it didn't seem so bad.

Mommy, Daddy, and I rode the train to Union Station.  We explored so much,  walking over 11 miles before heading back home.  We fed our squirrel friends, checked out the National Art Gallery.  We went to the Natural History Museum, saw some amazing animal pictures and got to experienced the butterflies.  I even had one land on my shirt!  I was so excited!  We saw Dorothy's ruby slippers along with some other cool things at the American History Museum.

We spent the rest of the afternoon walking and walking!  We visited the Washington monument and the World War II memorial as well as the driver, tidal basin, and the Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial.  I learned more about my Popaw and even found my second four-leaf clover!

We had such a great day and were so tired and ready for bed when we got home!

Memories from Today:

Woke up and was disappointed that it was raining and that we were going to have to wait another day to go to DC. I played Mario with Daddy until Mommy woke up. 

We spent a little while cleaning and organizing.  I helped go through some of my clothes to see what doesn't fit anymore.  After lunch, a few errands, and a little more housework, we went to Skyzone!  It was awesome!!!  I jumped, climbed, and literally bounced off the walls.  Mommy and Daddy jumped too!  We had so much fun!  When we walked out of the Skyzone door, I said, " This is my favorite zone!"  (Daddy said calzones are pretty good too).

Before bed, we cuddled on the couch and watched An American Tail together.

Memories from Today:

Woke up excited about seeing my Easter basket... I had some great stuff in my basket... two shirts, two stuffed animals, a princess coloring poster, and lots of candy.   Mommy, Daddy,  and all the animals had goodies from the bunny too.   I was excited to see that the Easter bunny had eaten nearly all the carrots I had left for him... he also drank nearly all the water and even tipped the bowl.

Loved being dressed up in my Easter dress.  I even wore my headband and necklace.  Church was fun and so was tge Easter egg hunt... except the wind which blew my bucket away!  I was more excited about finding some loose change in a couple of eggs instead of the candy that wad melting.

After lunch, we came home and I planned an egg hunt for Mommy and Daddy.  I even drew them a map of the "golden egg" (with change).  I never could remember where I hid that last egg!

Spent the evening doing a little housework and playing with a neighbor boy.

I can't wait to see what this week holds for us!

Memories from Today:

Had a great family fun-filled day. Played Mario with Daddy while Mommy slept in a bit.

All of us weny to Hagerstown... Mommy and I went Easter dress shopping while Daddy had a quick meeting then we spent a couple of hours at the park.  We walked, played, worked on my nature walk checklist for school, and fed the ducks and geese.  It was so much fun!  At one point I asked Mommy to take my picture while I was pretending to be a sloth.   She thought it was hilarious and adorable!

Got everything ready for the Easter bunny... I put out my Easter basket, I made Mommy and Daddy get buckets for them and then we uses small bags  for all 5 of our animals.  I put a bowl of carrots and a bowl of water with them and even scooted the stool next to it to make sure the bunny could hop up and reach the baskets and bags.

Earlier in the day, I asked Mommy if the Easter bunny is real and she asked me what I thought... I told her I didn't think so and that I thought it was mommies and daddies who put things in the baskets.  I did tell Mommy that I thought the tooth fairy was real since she brings special gold coins.  Mommy thought it was strange that at the end of the night, how I went through so much trouble for a bunny that I didn't think was real.  Mommy is just happy I somewhat believe for one more year.
