I’m the birthday boy! I know I don’t look it, but I’m really happy for my special celebration at school! (I just don’t like posing for pictures.) I was very appreciative of everyone celebrating my birthday…and maybe I let it go to my head a little. You can see a little bit of attitude inContinue reading “Birthday celebration at nursery school”

“Hey, Mason.” “Yeah?”

I can confidently say that I pick up a book every day! I love reading my books, and I love being read to. But I think it is time that I give back. So I’m practicing reading to others like my teachers do at nursery school.

I had a great first birthday! In some ways it was like any other day and that is what is so great about it! I have a great life! It did feel special today, but I hear that I’m going to have a birthday party this weekend and that is where the real celebration happens.Continue reading “Great first birthday!”

I had a lot of fun at the park again today! We looked at a lot of flowers and we had so much fun that we were exhausted and fell asleep. Who knew that flowers could be so exciting and draining?

I have a couple of hours in the morning before school so I spend that time playing with Daddy or relaxing with Daddy. Sometimes I play on my own, but even then, I check to make sure Daddy is watching me. Most of the time I need him in the room nearby and start cryingContinue reading “Morning playing and relaxing”

My evenings seem to go by very quickly. Mommy picks me up from school and then I eat dinner right when we get home. After dinner I have a bath, then am nursed, and if I can stay awake through that I get a book. Recently I fall into a deep sleep while nursing. YouContinue reading “Eat, bath, nurse, good night”

I love our walks at school! We go to the park and take a lot of different routes so there is a lot to see! Today was I was really interested in some dogs that were also taking a walk. It is fun and stimulating, but also very comfortable and peaceful. I often fall asleepContinue reading “Sleeping the buggy”

This morning I sneezed and Daddy copied me, then I burst out laughing. So he did it again. I laughed again and clapped. Then he did it again and again and I was rolling on the floor laughing and clapping all because fake sneezes are funny.

Yesterday was Mother’s Day here, but apparently it is is Mother’s Day for Grandma today. So I wanted to send her a message. But I wanted the positioning of the letters to be perfect so I kept touching them instead of smiling for the picture. I hope Grandma still gets the message even if itContinue reading “Happy Mother’s Day Grandma!”

There are certain kids’ shows that are on in the morning that I quite like. Daddy turns them on for me so that I can listen to the songs and learn some new things. For the most part I focus on my play and toys, but every so often I can’t take my eyes offContinue reading “Playing with TV on”

The older I get, the more foods and drinks I am being allowed to have. Recently I have been drinking some juice from time to time. Barely tea is still my main drink, but I get to have some vegetable juice as a treat from time to time. And it really is a treat! IContinue reading “Juice”

Happy Mother’s Day Mommy! You’re the best mommy ever! I love you! It is Mother’s Day today and I made Mommy a bouquet of my handprint flowers and a Mother’s Day card. She seemed really happy to get it from me! She liked it because it was all handmade. I’m glad she is okay withContinue reading “Mother’s Day”

We had a dandelion growing in our garden even though no one planted it. That’s fine, because it is a pretty interesting plant. Supposedly little kids like to play with them by blowing on them and making the fluffy white seeds fly everywhere. I just want to touch it.

I ate some cotton candy grapes today. They are these grapes that Daddy found at Costco. They were more expensive than the grapes he usually buys but knows how much Mommy likes fruits so got it for her as a treat. And you know what, they are great! They really do taste like cotton candy.Continue reading “Cotton Candy Grapes”

Now that I’ve mastered pointing at things, I’m finally putting it to good use. Instead of using it just to show people what I see, now I can communicate what I want. So when eating a meal I can indicate to Mommy and Daddy what food I want to eat next. Pretty useful!
