Pre-breakfast and beard off

I woke up in a really good mood this morning because I knew it was the weekend. That means we have a pretty relaxed morning with no rushing to get ready to go to school. So I just chilled on the couch with a pre-breakfast while Daddy got my real breakfast ready. Then after I finished […]

Acorn maracas, mat play, and petting

Today we made acorn maracas at school. We had collected a lot of acorns at the park and we put them into plastic bottles. Then we could shake them to make music. We had a lot of fun making quite a racket with them and dancing around to the music we made We also had some mat play

Morning playtime

Look who got ready really quickly and had time to play this morning! Usually I take a while to get going so I don’t have that much time to play, but today I ate my breakfast quickly and did not fuss when it came time to change clothes and brush my teeth. And as a result

Tickle fight with Mommy

I got in a fight with Mommy today. A tickle fight. Mommy is very ticklish around her neck, but so am I. It was a fun competition full of laughter! Everyone was a winner!

English class and a walk

Today I had fun during English class at school. I laughed a lot and had fun dancing to the English songs. Or for me, just “songs”. I’m not necessarily learning anything new, but I am having fun in a comfortable language. We also went for a walk today. I was about to be in a bad mood when we

“Walking” to school

I know that I’m a big boy now and that I should be able to walk to school, but I much prefer that Daddy carry me. Especially in the winter. It is so much warmer to be carried than to walk on my own. Also, Daddy let’s me watch one of my kids’ songs on the way. I think

Yogurt drink

Today Daddy came home from work with drinks for everyone. I got a grape flavor yogurt drink which was so good that I finished it in no time.

Playing with sand

Today we brought a lot of beach toys to the park and we all played with the sand. I was collecting a lot of delicious sand for my cooking. I made all kinds of dishes for my teachers who ate them eagerly and told me they were all very yummy.

“Almost” botcha time

Daddy told me it was botcha time. I corrected him and said that it was “almost” botcha time. I found out that tacking “almost” on to different scheduled times is a good way to put something off.

Chilling on a park bench

We play so hard at the park that sometimes we just have to take a break on the bench.

Music video on the way to school

Part of our going to school routine includes watching a music video from my favorite kids show app. It started off with Wheels on the bus and then it moved on to a lot of different songs on the app. It is a bit of a reward for leaving home on time to head to school.

Running around and holding hands

Today at the park I ran around with my friends and teachers all while holding hands. It was so much fun. After we ran around we went looking for grasshoppers but couldn’t find any. I reported this to my teacher.

Shirt and pants hat

Recently I have been requesting shirt and pants hats. What that means is that when Daddy goes to bathe me, he makes hats out of the clothes that I take off. We have made many types of hats of all sorts of designs. I always have to show Mommy my newest fashion trend.

Cooking nabe

Just helping Daddy in the kitchen. We are having nabe tonight. I got to mix and pour.

Water coloring

Today I did some water coloring. I don’t mean I painted with water colors. I mean I used water to color. We got this special paper where the colors come out when you brush it with water. It was pretty cool! And I did a good job. The right colors stayed in the right area. Art!

Pullback cars

I have a bunch of pullback cars that I usually get with kids’ meals. They don’t work very well on the mat in the living room. So Daddy pulled back the futon bed and we played with the pullback cars on the hardwood floor. They really zipped and zoomed so fast!

Slide tunnel

Recently when we’ve been going to the park I love to go down the slide and sometimes Mommy and Daddy make a tunnel over the slide for me. But Mommy was busy today so Daddy took me to the park by himself. So he tried to make a tunnel and take a video at the same time. But

Quiet time

After so much active and imaginative play, sometimes I just need to relax and have some quiet time. I am allowed some iPad time and TV time. But before long I get antsy and end up playing.
