Moving up to the 2 year old room

Today it was like the first day of school, even though I had been going to school throughout the other summer months. I walked right in and knew something was going to be different. I saw some of my guy friends in the older room and I wasn't sure exactly where to go. I stood there and just looked for a minute. Gavin S. said "Hi" as soon as he saw me. It was very nice. Then Mommy walked me into my new room. I went right over to the kitchen set and then I took a toy off the shelf which had different shapes and Gavin came over to play with me. Later that morning, I reviewed the alphabet with Gavin J. He watched me like a good student as I went over every letter. Ms. Chris was impressed with my teaching skills. I get those mostly from Daddy and maybe a little from Mommy. We also had circle time and reviewed shapes, numbers, and colors. We went outside for a little bit today too. At lunch I was a little too small for the chairs at the table, so they brought in a high chair for me. I was the queen of the round table. Ms. Becky said that I should have had a crown. I was very happy at school today.

At night Mommy took me to the doctor's for my well visit. I am now 32.5 inches tall and weigh 27.4 pounds. We had a little bit of a wait for the doctor, so I played with the paper and sang songs with Mommy. Eventually I just wanted to walk around and kept trying to stand up on the table. Mommy brought out her iPod Touch and I got to use Doodle Buddy until the doctor came. It was so cool! I did not like the doctor touching me and looking at my ears, mouth and heart. I also knew I was getting a shot today, I could just tell that it was going to happen and then Mommy went and asked the doctor to give me another one -for the flu. I was so mad at her. I tossed and turned and tried to move out of that very uncomfortable situation. Luckily it was over quickly. Mommy tried to explain that it was good for my health and maybe I'll believe her when I get older, but not right now - those shots hurt. I didn't even care that I got a cool bandaid or sticker. Mommy gave me some water and a cracker and that helped me calm down a little.
