Hello, Layla?

My new room

Check out my new room! I'm a big boy now so I've got a big boy bed - and it's red! My favorite color. Mommy took me to buy new bedding and I picked out one with trucks and cars. The best part about my new big boy bed is being able to do ON YOUR MARK, GET SET, GO! That's when I run to the bed and do a belly flop! And then, I go ONE, TWO, THREE! And do a big jump onto the floor....

By the way, I don't think I need anymore stuffed animals.

Backpack Vacuum

When mommy and daddy asked me what I wanted for my third birthday I told them A BACKPACK VACUUM. Now mommy and daddy had no idea what I was talking about, even though what I said made perfect sense! Then I saw a landscaper down the street while daddy and I were in the car and I yelled, I WANT THAT, A BACKPACK VACUUM! And I pointed to the guy blowing the leaves down the street. Well guess what, I didn't get what I wanted for my birthday, though I did get a lot of nice gifts. So I had to get creative and make my own backpack vacuum by putting my vacuum into my backpack and strapping it on my back. What can I say, I'm a genius

My first day of preschool!

Hello everybody. Guess what, I'm in preschool now! I go every Monday, Wednesday and Friday from 9-3. My first day was on Monday and I can't wait to go back. In fact, when mommy comes to pick me up I never want to leave! I say, "NO MOMMY, FIVE MORE MINUTES!" And then when I don't go to school I'm disappointed. I really like my school. You're probably wondering why I'm wearing my bathing suit to school on the first day. Well that's because on Mondays and Fridays it's WATER DAY! They blow up a big pool and me and my friends get to play in it and there are sponges in the pool! Today we painted pet rocks.

Happy 4th of July!

Big Boy Bed

Last week mommy and daddy took me to Ikea to buy me a big boy bed! Mommy didn't like any of the beds, but daddy and I found one we liked! It was pine. Mommy didn't want pine. Daddy told mommy that he and I would paint it whatever color I wanted and I, of course, picked red - like a fire truck. Mommy and daddy took me to Home Depot to pick out paint and mommy kept trying to get me to switch to blue and daddy kept trying to get me to pick a darker red but I only wanted fire truck red and that's what I got - SEE!

Daddy and I waited until this morning (4th of July) to start painting and when mommy came out to take a look she couldn't believe how great it looked. I couldn't believe how much fun it was to paint.

Dirty hands! ICK.

Look at daddy - he's my best friend. That's what I keep telling him. And then I walk around behind him and do whatever he does, like if he crosses his arms I cross my arms and if he crosses his legs I cross my legs, because he's my favorite person in the whole world today.

A big kiss for daddy for a job well done! THANK YOU DADDY

Look at this...MY OWN ROLLER BRUSH! Can you believe it!

Fireman Cosmo

In case you didn't know, I love all things that have to do with the fire department, like firemen, firetrucks, fire houses, fire hoses, fire hydrants, fireman hats... I even have 2 fire trucks and a big fire house. I'm so obsessed that I beg mommy to drive by the fire house in our neighborhood to see if the firemen are home. If I hear fire sirens, I want to run outside and watch them pass by.

Drum Circle

The drum circle happens every third Sunday of the month on the beach. This is my first time playing in the circle and I had so much fun. At first I was a little shy, but then I got really into it and wanted to play my drums in the middle of the circle, but only if mommy went in the middle of the circle with me, which she would not do - I don't know why! I actually cried when I had to leave. When Layla comes to visit in August maybe she'll want to join the circle, too.

I love soccer!

I love soccer so much that I actually do every single thing that coach Lindsey asks me to do. I stretch and kick and dribble and drop kick and run and I don't use my hands! Last week mommy bought me a pair of Lotto cleats. They're white and black and I want to wear them every day.
