writing

My old dry erase board got trashed by me, so mommy brought me home one from work that was being thrown away.  It is fun because it has lots of lines on it. 

I like to practice my letters.  My favorite things to write are Dexter and Mom.  They are also the only words I know how to spell :)  The lines are handy, it keep my letters small so I don't get to crazy with my writing.

Gobble Gobble

I spent this Thanksgiving with my friends Duncan and Áine.  Their daddy is a great cook and made us a yummy middle eastern themed Thanksgiving because their mommy just got back from deployment and we wanted to eat some of the foods she had while overseas.

I also watched lots of movies with them and played games. I also tried to share my mommy but that got a little hard at times.

Today was also my mommy's birthday, we watched the Gators beat the Noles while eating Chipotle - what a perfect night!

Happy Birthday Daddy!

Daddy and Mommy at the Air Force Dining Out

My birthday card to daddy.  I drew the happy face and wrote my name on top (we are working on lower case letters at school) then mommy wrote on the bottom.

I have a great birthday plan for daddy - we are going to eat ice cream and watch Kung Fu Panda.  He likes both of those things and so do I!

Christmas Tree

Today we set up the Christmas Tree and read all my Christmas books.  I only have one new Christmas Book with Curious George in it, all the others are my mom's old books from the 70s.  They are funny, the Dennis the Menace book says things like golly and geez whiz.

Bunk Beds

I was going to wait until I moved to Virgina to switch from my toddler bed to my mommy's old bunk bed set (she got it when she was in 4th grade!) but then I thought how great it would be to use for my forts.  So we put it together and went out and bought some sheets and mattresses.  I love it!

Security Blanket...

When I sleep not only to I need my blanket, I need all 5.  I also need a zoo so I bring all my animals over.  Then they might like some food so I bring most of my kitchen things over.  Then I can fall asleep.  Usually I do all this right behind the door so it is hard to get inside.  I did that last night and then mommy moved me to my bed during the night but when she woke up I was back with my things.

3 1/2 years old!

Vital Stats:
Weight: 35.6 pounds  Height: 39 inches
Clothes I wear size 3-4T shirts and pants, size 9 shoes

Skills:
Physically:  I am potty trained and have not had an accident in a while now.  I can run, jump and ride a bike with training wheels

Verbally:  I completed the first eight weeks of speech class and in January will have eight more weeks of class.  My speech has improved a lot since I turned three, I talk much more now to friends and strangers alike.

Likes: My favorite thing to do is either play "putt-putt" on the iPad or build a structure with magna-tiles.  I like to play at the playground and swinging is still my favorite there - I have learned how to pump my legs so I can swing myself.

 

Favorite Foods: I have branched out here and finally starting eating some meat (perhaps it is because mommy isnt cooking it and the chef is....) fish is a favorite, along with pork.  I still love grapes, yogurt, bagels, mac & cheese, PB&J sandwiches.  My new favorite treat is ice cream- which was my reward for popping in the potty. 

Dislikes:  I want mommy or daddy close by so I can see them or touch them, but I don't want them helping me do anything. 

What is to come: For Thanksgiving we are going to Colorado Springs to play with the McCalls.  At Christmas time it is off to Florida to see Disneyworld and all my mommies family.  Then not much until we move to Virgina next summer. 

Gamer

I have gamer genes, which explains my addiction to the two putt-putt games I have on my iPad.  They are so much fun to play!
