Good Morning!

Mommy says I'm a very structured person (????). I'm not sure what she means, but I do like everything around me to be just so.
Particularly in the morning.

When I get up, I do just the same thing every morning. I wake up when the sun does and then it's my job to tell everyone the sun is up.

I go straight to Mommy and Daddy's room and find Mommy first (Daddy is REALLY hard to wake up). I tell her the sun's up and she says she wants to sleep anyway. But I know that's just silly.

When I get downstairs, I curl up on the couch and turn on Mickey Mouse Clubhouse. (It's my favorite these days). I watch two shows and then I need to eat. I won't eat before my shows. You just CAN'T eat right after you get up. Yuck!

So I eat (usually rice crispies, but sometimes rice chex) then I go potty and then I play toys. Some days I go potty and then go to school. I don't mind school so much, but it annoys me to have my days shaken up like that. I want to do it the same every day!

Aunt Karren the Princess

This is Tommy and me with Aunt Karren. She comes over to play with us a lot with Uncle Bruce. They read us stories, build forts, and play good games. But Karren has a very cool little secret. She is a Princess.

You can't tell in this picture, though she DOES look pretty, but secretly she is a real Princess! I saw for myself the other day. She wears a sparkly white gown and has a long filmy veil thing flowing out of her hair. She has pink lips and a twinkly ring on her finger.

Mommy says she was dressed like that because she married Uncle Bruce on Saturday. Whatever. I know a Princess when I see one. Aunt Karren is the prettiest Princess I ever saw.

And I'm glad she married Uncle Bruce--he's great fun!

Bubble Time!

Tommy and I take a bath almost every night and we always have LOTS of Bubbles! Bubbles are the best bath time fun! You can do ANYTHING with Bubbles!
You can make hats...

...but they are messy hats and get all over the place if you get them wet, which you can't help doing if you're playing in the bath! Yuck!

Tommy likes Bubbles too, but he likes to eat them--sort of. He puts them in his mouth and them spits them out all over! Silly Tommy!

I love my bath so much. Bubbles are fun and the toys are fun and then I come out all clean. If I stay in long enough, I come out with wrinkly fingers and toes. That is so weird, but cool too.

Yay Bath Time! Yay Bubble Time!

School

I go to School now. Mama says it's because I'm so big. I think it's because she wants to leave me and go do fun things with Tommy. Don't get me wrong--I like school once I'm there. I just don't like being ditched!
The first day was a lot of fun! Tommy came and Mama too. We were all so excited!

I made friends on the very first day--before class even started! This is me and Max talking to Tommy. I also like to play with Quinn and Nylah. Nylah is my friend at church too. See us sitting together in the next picture?

This is me and Nylah in the circle singing songs with our class. School is really fun. We sing and read stories in the circle then we play outside and make pictures. (I always make sure to go potty while I'm at school so Mommy will give me an ice cream when I go home.) Last of all we sit in the circle again and sing until time to go home.

We have two teachers. This is Miss Mary. I like her very much--she knows great songs!!

And this is Miss Tamara. She reminds me to go potty at school and she is very nice. She is going to have a baby soon--it's in her tummy.

So that is School. I go two times a week and it is enough for now. I didn't get to go today--I'm a little sick and so is Tommy. But I will go back on Tuesday. I'm a big boy now and it's my job to go to school, but sometimes I wish I could just stay home and play.

Train People

I like trains very much and some of my favorite toys are my train tracks. I like to stretch them across the room and run all my trains on them at once. But tracks are good for lots of things.
They are fabulous for making pictures! This is one I worked on with Mommy. It's our van. Look, you can see our family--all four of us wearing our seat-belts. And I put our bags in the back too--we drove all the way to Utah just like this!

This is a guitar. Mommy helped a little with this one, but I did most of it myself. I love guitars SO much!

And now to introduce my Train People. This one is Daddy. It's looks just like him, I think. I did it all by myself!

This is a fun one, but I don't know who it is. He's ABCs and so many colors. I did this one by myself too.

This was my very first Train Person. It's ME! I did it completely all by myself and surprised Mommy and Daddy. Aren't I clever?! See, he's got hands next to his face, big feet, a belly button, and even a wee-wee.

See? Little me resting inside the Train-me. This was my biggest Train Person ever! I loved him. Mommy took this video of me playing nice with Train-me.



I have so much fun making Train People, especially their faces. I have a thing for smiling faces right now. I like to draw them on paper, make them out of rocks, sticks, and blocks. But the tracks are best because they are curvy and I can make them smile.
These Train People are so wonderful. I like to give them kisses and hugs, but I always eventually have to take them apart again. It's very sad, I know, but I just keep making more and more. If you ask and say please, I might make one just for you!

And Here they are...The Parkers!

There are very few people in my life that I have known as far back as I can remember. Mommy, Daddy, family people, and the Parkers. Laney, in particular, is my best friend (besides Mommy).
We like to play together, talk to each other, and even stare at the TV when our dads play the Wii. People sometimes think we are twins. I have no idea why.

This is my friend Laney. Isn't she pretty? I like her hair--she didn't always have so much, you know. I can remember when she had less than me! Now she looks like a princess, which really works for her.

This is Cali. She's not a big girl, like Laney, but she's bigger than a baby, like Tommy. Cali is like a little girl version of me. She gets excited about stuff and makes lots of noise.

She knows my name and yells it when she's looking for me. She also follows me around, trying to play my games with me. Honestly, I don't know what to think of her, but I like having her around.

This is the whole Parker family playing Wii. The girls just like to watch--what's up with that? Hello, sillies! Wii is about waving a paddle around and getting excited!

I decided to do this post about the Parkers, you know, because I just found out they were going to ditch me and move away, but they decided not to after all. Well, HOOORAAAY! I was so happy, I just had to write something for them.

Yay Parkers!

A Family Walk

Every Monday night, Daddy comes home and we do something called Family Night. We do all kinds of things as a family and one night a few weeks ago we went for a walk. We had dinner at MacDonalds and then walked around Stanford.
Tommy and I really liked the play area at MacDonalds. We did everything together.

I have to help Tommy play sometimes, but I don't mind. I like spending time my baby brother--he's cool.

We had a great time around the shopping center. There was no one there but us.

The only complaint I have is that we couldn't go in any stores. I really would have liked to mess up a few displays, but I guess you can't everything.
