My Favorite Song Today...

Today I played in the baby room with Ms. Becky. I enjoyed the foam books, shape sorter, and cups. I sang some songs with Ms. Becky. My favorite was "If you're happy and you know it." I got a little cranky near lunch time but it was probably because I was hungry.

Watching Myself Walk

I was walking all over the place today at school and absolutely loving it! I enjoyed walking towards the mirror so I could see myself. Ms. Chris found it to be really cute, so I did it over and over again. I'm really getting some practice on the new walking ability. We also read stories, blew bubbles, made animal noises and danced at school today.

Saturday Night Drumming

I had a great time playing the drums tonight!
Mommy and Daddy were impressed by my talents.
Here's a video so you can see for yourself:

Fun with Gavin J.

Today I played with the big legos and the toy phones. I also played the drums and the piano. I had a great time playing in the tunnel and whenever Gavin J. would poke his head into the tent I'd giggle up a storm. He was just so funny today. We had a fun time!

Animals

Today we played with big legos and built towers to knock down. We colored and glued tissue paper to an umbrella. I had a blast tearing the tissue paper apart. We read books and went over the animal flash cards and talked about what noises the make. Mommy thought this was great because she had done the same thing with me before school.

I'm walking!!!

Today we made a thunder storm project with lighting. We also made a really cool sun! It's weather week at school. We read books and I really liked the belly button one. I always focus when that story is read to me. I played with shapes and put them in the shape sorter. I also played with puzzle books today.

At night Mommy and Daddy realized that once I had the confidence to take those few steps on my own there was nothing stopping me. I am so proud of myself for walking. It feels great and it even makes me giggle sometimes.

Giggling in the Tunnel

Today we built a big tower of blocks. Paul and I had a fun time giggling in the tunnel. We also played with the play house. We were real buddies today. I also made a project with Ms. Laura's help. I had a great day at school with my friends today.

First Trip to the Zoo

Today I went to the zoo with Mommy and Daddy. It was a little chilly, but a nice day to go. I saw so many wonderful animals. Of course, Mommy took too many pictures and Daddy held me up to see all the animals. We had a great time! I am happy that Mommy got a membership, so we can go back again. I loved watching the red panda so Mommy and Daddy got me a stuffed animal of the red panda. I love it! I also really liked watching the lynx and of course all the people who were walking around. We saw a peacock open it's feathers too. It was great!

Here's a pelican:

This is the lynx that I loved watching:

Here is a cheetah:

I was happy to see this peacock:

Here I am with Daddy:

We watched the leopard for a while too:

This red panda made me giggle:

The giraffes were really tall.
This one was funny because he stuck his tongue out.

Here I am watching polar bears with Daddy:

First Day of Spring!

Today we chased some bubbles around the room. We read stories and played in the tunnel. I love playing in the tunnel, it is one of my favorite things to do at school. We also had a great time dancing today. My friends and I were sharing a lot of hugs today. We were so happy about the first day of Spring.

Happy Birthday Uncle Bob & Aunt Patti!

We had a great silly play day today. We played in the tunnel and all took turns going through. We giggled all the time. I sat with all my friends and played legos. We made kites with shapes and glue. I was so excited listening to the music with my friends that I was basically dancing on my knees. I had a great and funny day!

Happy Birthday to Aunt Patti and Uncle Bob! I hope that they both had a great day!

Bubbles and Giggling

We made a rainbow with paint and our hands today. We read stories. I blew bubbles and giggled with my friends. I took some steps today too. We all sat and sang songs. Everyone loved my outfit today. I had a wonderful day!

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Today we made Mommy and Daddy a special St. Patrick's Day Card. It's so nice of Ms. Laura to help me do a project like that for my parents. I played with puzzles and blocks. I just love the foam puzzles. We also read stories and danced to the music. We colored today too and Ms. Laura said I did a great job making art. I was also giving out tons of hugs today to my teachers and to my friends. Slainte!

Art Smock

I wore my art smock today. I looked so fashionable at art time! We glued fruit loops to paper and made a rainbow. We also painted with dot art. We practiced colors, read stories, and danced to the Wheels on the bus. We played blocks and built a tower. I had a great day!

Laughing So Hard

We played with the foam toys and puzzles today. We sang and danced along to songs and I loved that! We watched as Ms. Laura cleaned and I helped put a few toys away. Ms. Laura was impressed that I knew where they went. I laughed so hard when Paul was shaking his head No-No, all crazy-like.

Good Check-up

Today I went for my check-up at CHOP for my hips. I did pretty well with my X-Ray and when the doctor checked me out. He said that I was doing great! I still need to go for a standing X-ray when I am 5 years old because the angle of my right hip is at the top of the normal range. It's ok. I know that I will be fine.

I played in the little house with Paul when I got to school. I also danced to nursery rhyme music. I also played with the wooden ball mazes. I played the xylophone like a pro today too. I'm taking after my Daddy. I fit right into my schedule even though I came in late today.

Artist!

We colored a leprechaun with crayons today. We practiced colors, shapes, animals and their sounds by using flashcards. I was an intent listener too. I went around the room and played with one toy after the other. I had a busy day playing with all of my friends and reading stories too!

I got a couple of spots on my pants today, like a true artist. Actually it was bleach that accidentally dripped from when Ms. Laura was cleaning and left on my seat, but I don't care. I'm an artist! Mommy, on the other hand, was happy to learn that they will be using other materials to clean from now on.

Spoons as a Paintbrush

Today we made a decked out shamrock with glitter and glue. We used spoons as our paint brushes. (Mommy thought that was a neat idea.) I giggled the whole time while playing in the tunnel today. We also read books and played with blocks today.

Happy Birthday Grandmom!

Today our craft project was to make a pot of gold and a shamrock. I built a tower with blocks today too. I also played with musical instruments and Ms. Laura said that I sounded pretty good too. I also played with Paul in the playhouse.

Today is my Grandmom's birthday. Mommy has been trying to get me to say Happy Birthday, but I'm not quite ready yet. I hope that she has had a wonderful birthday!

Bubbles!!!!

Today we worked with paints and markers. We made Ms. Becky a get well card, since she had to get her appendix taken out. We also played basketball. We also read "Go Dog Go" which I brought in for Dr. Seuss week. We blew hundreds of bubbles and popped them. They were everywhere! I was shaking my booty to our kid CD. I love music!

Teaching and Reading

I was a teacher today just like Daddy. I hung out in the baby room and I had so much fun with my littlest friends. I taught Jaymeson how to turn on the alphabet bus and we played with it together. Then Ms. Stacy brought down the whole big bucket of books and I was so excited! I was very cute when I held the book, turned pages and actually "read" out loud.

No more bottles

Today it's been a year since I have been in daycare. It's hard to believe that time has gone by so quickly. I had a great time with the musical tables. We read books and I sat on Ms. Laura's lap to listen. We painted and glued a collage of shapes and I was so good. As usual, I spent some time sitting in the tunnel too. Today was also the first day that I didn't have a bottle at daycare. I'm totally drinking from Sippy cups now. It's a big step.
