Special Post: Create Your Own Caption!!!
Yeah, we won!
I think someone is following me!
My homeopathic recipe for a whole lot of crazy and a little bit of calm! Happy Turkey/Tofurkey Day from all of us. We hope everyone has a wonderful holiday and hopefully Mama will figure out what day of the week it is again and there will be a new post to look forward to this Sunday!
I’m about to eat a bunch of black olives. This has always been a process for me, but now that I’m 3.5 years old…I’ve perfected this process and thought I would share it with all of you.
First you have to have at least 5 black olives so that you can put one on each of your fingers. Then, you have to close your eyes and eat them off one at a time.
Oh yeah…and don’t forget to roll your eyes at least once per olive….”duh…of course these olives taste great”….
And last, but not least, have a napkin ready for that occasional drool that you just can’t contain!
Now, that I think about it…I think everything is a process these days. Mama and I made these paper turkeys this past week…
and Mama said I was having a few OCD moments.
I couldn’t help it…I just wanted the lid on the glue stick before I did anything else! Even if that meant the applied glue dried (while I was trying to get the lid on) and would have to be reapplied. Did I mention that Mama seems to have a lot of patience???
I think it was all worth it…
check out my awesome paper turkey!!!
In fact, I think Mama was just in some kind of turkey mood this past week. We even drew chalk turkeys on our drive-way just in time for the rain to come! (oops!)
Who knew a paper turkey would make such a great hat? I hope you all have a great week…and go ahead…let out your inner wild side and make a paper turkey hat too! See you next week!
It snowed! Well, okay it was really just flurries, but still. We all had slightly white grass and completely white roofs. I think that’s enough for me to call it snow. Now, if we could just get enough to go sledding!
Now, that Halloween is over I wake up everyday from my nap and perform a ritual in the remembrance of such a wonderful holiday. How, you might ask? By carefully selecting a treat from my treat bucket. As you will see…this task is not as easy as it sounds! (ps. I think I see a hair cut in my very near future.)
First, I have to think about what I’m in the mood for.
Then I have to carefully move all the treats around…
and around…exploring all of my options.
AND if that doesn’t work…then as a last resort I dump all of my treats out on the table…
and at last make a final decision. YUM!
Confused? Well, let me explain!
These guys you see on our TV are called the Imagination Movers. They are dads that wanted to make something musically fun for their kids and others as well. I think I’m in love. The coolest part is that these pjs look just like their blue jumpsuits (and I just happened to have an orange hat like Dave) so I feel like one of the band members!
Their music makes me want to sing and shout…
go surfing…
and get up and dance! Mama also recently discovered their music CDs at our library…so now it’s Imagination Movers (& KISS) 24/7! If you don’t know who they are…check their website out:www.imaginationmovers.com
Can you believe I drew this all by myself? I’ve been experimenting a lot and this is a yellow picture of Mama. The resemblance is so strong…I think we’re going to have to frame it!
Shhh….I have a little secret to tell you. Uncle Pete’s birthday is this week and we got him this really cool hat. Only it was upstairs in a box and I dug it out and started running around like a maniac saying it was my hat…
I hope he doesn’t mind…because I don’t think I’m giving it back! Have a great Sunday and we’ll see you next week!
But first…let’s get you caught up!
I had a small stint pretending to be Gran’Mary (she loves to wear this hat when she comes to visit).
I’m sure she makes silly faces like this too!
I also went to the Univ. of Wisconsin homecoming parade.
It was great! They passed out treats and everyone was playing our token song “Jump Around”…
Can you believe this guy was jumping around on rollerblades? He’s crazy!!
After weeks of begging Mama…I finally got my KISS face painted.
It looked awesome!
The only thing I’m missing are my drums!
I also went to my first Halloween party ever…
and it was awesome! We danced and partied all night!
I’m the HUMAN TORCH!!! I love you all, but watch out for my fireballs!
Naptime? No way! I’m ready to go to preschool today!
We’re supposed to be having quiet circle time, but it’s so hard to focus when you’re feeling hot.
We even had a really cool parade today at preschool—where we walked in circles to the music of “The Monster Mash” (and then promptly removed our costumes!).
We also did the Halloween “Hokie Pokie”…well, at least a slightly modified version. The “Hokie Pokie” looks really funny when you don’t know your left from your right!
On Halloween day, Katie, Maddie, Hayden, Mama and I went on a tour of the large No. 1 Fire Station downtown. We had a lot of fun and even got free firemen hats!
Mama and I took the ladder truck for a spin. The steering wheel was huge!
Since I’ve been doing so well in swimming lessons…I thought maybe I could join the boat rescue squad!
Aunt Robyn and I carved our pumpkin this year. Can you guess who he’s supposed to be??? I’ll give you a hint. His initials are PS and he’s in a band!
Finally, Halloween night came and I got to go TRICK OR TREATING!!! (Bring on the chocolate!!)
Aunt Robyn came (she really likes chocolate too) and she had CRAZY green hair!
This house is really close to our house. We’ve been looking at the decorations for 2 weeks now. They had lollipops and although Mama wasn’t that excited I was ecstatic! I love lollipops!!!!!
We also met up with Kyle and his family. We certainly kept the neighbors on their feet!
We stopped at the neighborhood’s haunted garage.
They don’t spook us younger kids too much, but they really get the big kids and the Mama’s and Papa’s. Mama saw something moving and ran away!
I guess you could say I’ve had a busy October! Thank you to everyone for all of the fun. The website seems to be perfect thanks to Uncle Nathan…so don’t forget to come back next week! Have a great week and don’t forget to VOTE on Tuesday!
