Shirt hats

While getting ready for bath, Daddy undresses me and then uses the garments to make creative hats for me. I really enjoy it and usually insist on showing it off to Mommy. She gets a kick out of it.

Sliding

We went to the park today and we all played on the slide. I love the slide, but I had to get used to the fact that there were other kids who wanted to slide as well. When my teacher reminded me that we had to take turns I was quick to agree, “Yes, take turns.”

No cameras

I understand that parents like to take a lot of pictures and videos of their kids but I sometimes just want it to stop. Tonight I had to tell Mommy, “Don’t. I don’t like it. Stop.”

Holding hands while sleeping

Apparently I hold hands when I sleep. Some of the time I look for Mommy’s hand to hold but sometimes I think it starts from Mommy. In either case, the result is a nice restful sleep and a happy morning!

Early morning car play

I got up earlier than usual today and had much more time to play with my toy cars. Here I am all fed, washed up and dressed, ready to go to school with more than half an hour to spare.

Shirt hats

I just have to show off the shirt hats that Daddy makes for me when undressing for bath time. I say, “show Mommy” and then run out to show Mommy the most recent trends in shirt hat fashion.

Learning to share

Today after running around at the park, I went in search of some acorns. I found some and was so proud of them. But when my teacher came by and asked to see them I said, “No, my acorns.” She is used to my outbursts and let it go. Later I felt bad about that so when a classmate

Traffic signs book

I like all things cars, so I’ve been reading a traffic signs book at school and borrowing it to read at home. I’m so fascinated by the signs. I’m able to recite most of the signs meanings now that I’ve read the book several times now.

Out of hummus

We ran out of hummus, so I ate my vegetable sticks with mayonnaise. It was okay, but I much prefer hummus. What two and a half year old eats hummus? Well, this one.

Not my color

We went shopping for a new jacket today. It is getting colder and my old jacket is a bit too small and doesn’t cover the length of my arms. We found a nice down jacket, but I just wasn’t feeling it. I’m so used to my red jacket that the blue just didn’t feel right. I guess we’ll have

Omurice

Today when asked what I wanted to eat for lunch, I very clearly and specifically said “Omurice“. I got my wish. We went to a restaurant that specialized in omurice and I cleaned my plate. I was just really craving so omurice today.

Car piggy back

Even cars like to get piggy backs. A lot of my small cars got a piggy-back ride from my big cars. It was like a two-layered caravan.

Outdoor Christmas lights

I helped Daddy put up Christmas lights. We made a Christmas tree. We have more lights coming in, so this is just the first part. Stay tuned for the rest.

Diaper change POV

I got a hold of Daddy’s phone when I was getting my diaper changed and I managed to take a POV picture. Daddy had to help me crop it because I was exposed.

Bath time conversation

Tonight I asked Daddy to give me a bath and we started with our usual routine. I brought a car watch me from the washing machine, I turned on all the lights and pulled down all the mats that were hung to dry. Then Daddy helped me take off my shirts and turned them into

Jump walking

Why just walk when you can jump walk?
