Month: December 2008

 

I am becoming pretty fearless at the playground. I finally have figured out how to climb on this rope thing. This one was at Countryside Rec Center. 

 

You need STRONG MUSCLES! 

And I have those! 🙂 

 

At the Long Center I love to fly high in the swing. It makes Mommy and Daddy nervous when I lean forward but it is a LOT of fun! 

I masted the climbing thing at the Long Center too! Mommy had to rescue me because I couldn’t figure out how to get down all the way.

 

These spinning seats are fun-tastic! You sit on them and then lean a bit to the front or side and you start to spin. I can go super fast and get realllllllly dizzy! 

I am thankful for Mommy, Daddy and Emmerson.

I got to be a pilgrim in our school Thanksgiving play. My hat kept falling off and my teacher, Mrs. Rosenblatt, spent a lot of time fixing it for me! 

Our class were pilgrims. Another class were indians and the third three-year-old class were dressed as turkeys. 

Getting my hat fixed, again!

Some of my classmates!

Being silly before singing our songs. We had four songs:

Flag of America

Hello Mr. Turkey

Ten Little Indians

and OOh-ahhh OOO-Ahhh Shoot that arrow

 

Here are some of the indians. That is my friend Jacob in the blue shirt! 

 

Counting out our indians in song!

Aren’t we all too cute!

Melanie (we grew up in Gymboree together) showing her smarts with counting indians!

The girl on the left is my sometimes girlfriend, Rebecca! She likes bugs! Zachary is next to me. Zachary and I are friends but we are mean to each other quite often! 

Shooting our arrows…this was our favorite song!

We all look like we should be in a special class of goofballs! But we were all REALLY into singing!

This is Dylan, Sophia and Ethan. They are my friends!

Dylan is a total ham!

This is Kayla and Melanie!

Jacob again. 

The turkeys took the stage! 🙂 

After the play a strange man got on stage dressed as a very colorful chicken. We all did the chicken dance. I made Grandpa Howie dance with me. The crowd was so big on the “dance floor” Mommy and Daddy had a hard time getting in with the camera.

 

 

 

The parents get roped into a LOT at our school. Daddy was even a pot of honey once at the Jewish New Year celebration! So everyones get involved!

 

Happy TURKEY DAY!

The other day we put up the Christmas tree for this holiday season. I found the holiday stockings in the box and thought they went on my feet! Like my candy cane jammies? (Mommy got them for $.50!!!!)

Hanging the first ornament! 

Being silly as Mommy shows me how to bend the tip of the branch so the cats and Emmerson don’t knock off the ornaments! 

All done… looking at the tree a different way… upside down! 

I even put the angel on top! 🙂 

 

Mommy snuggles! 

I love my family!

 

The finished tree! 🙂 It is “beautiful!”

 

I have a new friend from school. His name is Jacob. He is just as crazy as I am and we love to play together. We ever share well with each other! 🙂 

He thought my dinosaurs were pretty neat!

We played dress-up and I even shared my fairy wings with him!

We had some extra time to kill before heading to the airport in Sacramento. We opted to get up early and drive 45 minutes to the Jelly Belly Factory to take a tour to see home jelly beans are made.

I thought this was a really fun idea. We had to wait a bit to get in because we were early getting there. Outside there was a gigantic red jelly bean! HAHAHAHA!

Mommy and I cruised around the store before we began our tour. That was a LOT of jelly beans!!!

There was a funny mirror I found to see myself.

Getting ready to go into the factory. Cameras are not allowed so I leave you with this:

I had my share of jelly beans… a nice sugar high right before getting on the plane to come home.

Our trip home was great. Emmerson screamed the entire way. I slept for 4 hours. We got home to the house around 1 in the morning and I still managed to make it to school on time the next day, just a bit groggy. It took my tummy a few days to reset and then I was all back to normal.

I can’t wait for my next adventure! 🙂
