Alyson's Memorable Moments of the Day:

• I went to Ms. Sierra's house for the day instead of Ms. Cheri's.  I had fun playing with my toys and drawing pictures for Mommy.
• I was excited when Mommy picked me up about 2:00.  She got off of work early.  I was surprised to see snow falling when she took me to the car to go home.  I kept telling her it was raining and she kept saying that it was snowing.
• Mommy made me take a nap when I got home, but after I woke up, Mommy and Daddy took me outside to play in the snow.  It was so much fun.  Mommy was going to help me make a snowman, but the snow was she said the snow was too powdery (whatever that means!).  I kept picking up the snow with my mittens and watching it fall to the ground.  Daddy and I made snow angels too (Dresden tried to help too!).
• Daddy, Dresden, and I played in the tent again and talked to Shane on Facetime.  I even got to see Zeke!

Alyson's Memorable Moments of the Day:

• It was a SNOW DAY!  We got to sleep in and play most of the day.  I was happy!
• I played doctor with Mommy.  I took her blood pressure with my toy cuff and listened to my own heart with my stethoscope.
• I helped Mommy with laundry and helped Daddy clean a little too.
• I loved playing in my tent and with my purse and of course Dresden.
• Daddy took Mommy and I to Panera for dinner.  I wore Mommy's gloves in the car since my hands were cold.  I loved the yogurt after my mac-n-cheese.  I also loved the heart cookie Mommy and Daddy got me.  It said, "Love You" and was so yummy!
• We stopped at Petsmart and I had to visit all of my animal friends around the store.  My hamster friend even waved at me!  I kept waving to get him to wave back.  Daddy let me help by carrying Dresden's treats.  I was such a good helper.

Alyson's Memorable Moments of the Day: 

• I wore a beautiful purple shirt today.
• Ms. Cheri and I played with my princess dress up things.  She was impressed at how well I was able to put on my earrings and wear my high heel shoes.
• I asked Mommy to play my song on the radio in the car on the way home.  I danced and sang (so did Mommy).  I love that song!
• Daddy fixed me yummy spaghetti for dinner.
• Daddy was looking for something under the couch, so I decided it would be a great time to climb on his back and ride him.  Dresden helped too!
• Mommy and I read all about Mary and her lamb, Old King Cole, and Old Mother Hubbard before bed.  I love my books.
• I had to wear my purple socks to bed even though I had worn white ones during the day.  I dug through my drawer in order to find them.
• I loved looking at the stars from my turtle light while falling asleep tonight.

Alyson's Memorable Moments of the Day:

• It was so cold going to Ms. Cheri's house this morning.  I was so happy Mommy started the car and helped me to put on my mittens.
• I loved playing with my sticker book at Ms. Cheri's house this morning!
• On the way home, I yelled at Mommy, "Look Mommy, a triangle!" and pointed toward the windshield.  Mommy looked all around outside while driving but didn't see a triangle so she asked me, "Where honey?  Where is the triangle?"  I said, "Right there Mommy" and pointed right at the hazard lights button the dashboard.  When Mommy pointed at it and said, is this what you were pointing at, I said, "Yes!"  Mommy was so proud of me. 
• I got to spend a little time with Ms. Sierra this evening then Daddy bought me my very own tiny Frosty from Wendy's.  It was delicious!
• We picked Mommy up from school.  She was talking to parents when we got there, so Daddy and I just walked around a little and talked to the other teachers.  Mommy gave me a pop math quiz in front of her math teacher friend and I passed.  I named a triangle, circle, diamond, and a heart. after she drew them on the board.  Mommy thinks I am so smart!

 

Note from Mommy:  We did not take pictures today.  I'm so sad!  She was asleep before I realized.  Sorry!   :(

Alyson's Memorable Moments of the Day: 

• I gave Dresden a good morning kiss and ate two breakfasts, one with Daddy and then another with Mommy.

• I wore Daddy shoes into the living room and said, "I'm Franny!" (like the television show Franny's Feet).

• I found Daddy's headlamp and asked him to put it on me.  I decided since I had it on my head to explore under the recliner.  I found several toys under there. Daddy says I'm already a caver!

• I bounced and balanced on pillows in the living room, even fell over at one point and laughed hysterically.

• I took random pictures of my picnic basket and Dresden with Mommy's phone.

• Daddy and I built a fort with blankets, my chair, and table... Dresden wanted to join us, but there wasn't much room.

• Daddy laid down on the couch, so I decided to cover him up with the blanket.

• I read and sang to Grandma and Grandpa on the phone.

• I correctly counted to 9 and was able to name nearly all of the shapes in my book.  Mommy is so proud of me!

• We never left the house or got out of our pajamas today.  It was such a nice day!

Alyson's Memorable Moments of the Day: 

• I colored a posterboard with my crayons.  I loved it!  
• I had fun playing at church until the door slammed and I got scared...  I told Mommy and Daddy that the church was scary.
• After lunch, Mommy and Daddy took me to Monkey Joe's to play.  I got to ride a motorcycle, bounce over and over and over again, and climb up  and go down several slides.  I even had kids teach me how to go down the slide different ways...  Mommy's least favorite is the jumping then dropping to your bottom at the top of the slide.  I think it makes her nervous.  Daddy also won me a ball out of one of the games.  We had so much fun!
• I played fetch with Dresden.  He was very gentle with me.  I had so much fun throwing his toy and having him bring it back.

Alyson's Memorable Moments of the Day: 

• Mommy and Daddy were not excited when I woke up at 5:00 am ready to play.
• Mommy went to work the county science fair and we went to visit her and take her lunch (Chick-fil-a). Daddy even let me play before we picked up the food.  
• I explored Martinsburg High School with Daddy.  It is so much bigger than Mommy's school!  I even helped Mommy by counting the projects.
• I covered Mommy's leg and myself with stickers.  It was so much fun!
• Daddy took Mommy and I to Sweet Frog for "ice cream."  I had a little vanilla and a little strawberry yogurt with strawberries and a few mini chocolate chips.  YUM!!!   Daddy says the only reason we went was to help Shepherd's APO chapter with their Relay for Life fundraiser, but I think he just wanted me to have "ice cream."
