Wonderful Wednesday

On the way to school today, I told Mommy that Ava and I were going to have a play date. I told her that I am teaching Ava my Mommy's phone number so Ava can call and pick a date for her to come over.  I hope Ava is in my class forever!

Guess who surprised me at school for a story?  Mommy!

And I got snuggles in the hall by my bestie.

On the car ride home, I asked Mommy to sing a song to the tune of "I go to my new class". Yes, I have been going to Miss Katelyn's class every day to practice my big move up to preschool.  It's a lot of fun to see my old friends but none of my now friends are going to move up with me. Boo!

This is one amazing week!

Terrific Tuesday

Mommy let me go to school in my bathing suit. Why didn't we start this earlier in the summer. Wearing my bathing suit means lots of water play. Hooray!

And, of course we needed a picture rock moment to remember my very last Tuesday at Harmony.

And then it was art sampler day with Ms. Katie Truk.   With the help of water color crayons I made flowers and with black paint and straws I made the stems. Mommy was super duper impressed, but it's just another day for me in art sampler class.  I am so glad that Mommy discovered the art center that is just down the street from our house.

Mommy headed to dinner at Aaron's house.  Aaron is going to be in kindergarten at Cranbury School too.  I got a babysitter but Mommy got to hang out with lots of Mommies and also meet with my tee ball coach.  My tee ball coach told all the Mommies that in her 23 years coaching that I was one of the most memorable because I wore pink dresses, pink tutus and a pink helmet to practice and games.

Marvelous Monday

Well, it's here.  My very last Monday at Harmony. I can sense lots of picture rocks moment this week. Take note of our hair before school.

After school is a totally different story.  Miss Sadhna came back from a month in India and made Christina's hair into a french braid.  No one is quite sure how she worked that magic.

Speaking of magic, check out this moment with Lauren.  She and I go back all the way to infants in Miss Kim's room. Onward and upward, dear friend!

Back home for a quick potty break, Christina found the perfect afternoon stroll sunglasses and glass slippers.

And then we were off on our stroll.  And we totally lucked out because the fire house is open!  I hopped right up while Christina freaked when she heard the two way radio making noise with people talking.  Even the super nice firefighter asked what happened because Christina was in the firehouse with Daddy just a few days ago.  Mommy explained that the radio wasn't on last time they were there. The noise makes all the difference.  Christina doesn't like noise at all!

Oh, and we went upstairs to the play room to look at the world map and relearned where Denmark is.  Why?  Cuz that's where Daddy is!

My Turf!

Mommy and Mr. Dean went to breakfast at Blue Rooster while Daddy and us girls went for a walk on Main Street.

By walk, I mean for a ride in the fire truck!

Vroom, vroom!

Cheese face, Samantha!

Then, Daddy and Mr. Dean had to scoot.  Mommy took us to Sesame Place with Mira and Rohan. Mira and Samantha are such good friends!

Just like Mommy and me!

Cheese faces!

We went with Mr. Wade on the the duck ride and it freaked Rohan out so we settled down at the water park.  Once he figured it out, Rohan had a (water) blast!

Of course, Samantha did too!

Me?  Didn't look back for Mommy at all. This is my turf!

And I like it!

Mommy, no need to come closer. I've got this!

But you can zoom to get a close up of happy!

After that, we went to Count's Castle and Mr. Wade didn't know the secret.  Don't stand under the bucket.  So, we got totally soaked, wet, cold, and shivery.

We hightailed it to Elmo's World Show and settled down to some selfies.

More our speed.

Rocking during the show.

Besties!

I'm still in shock that Mr. Dean actually turned down an invitation to meet Elmo!  

Bounce U Birthday Girl Mira!

So, remember how Chrissy reminded you that she throwed up all over Mr. Dean TWICE? Well, this morning Daddy woke up with a bug in his belly. So, plans for Mr. Dean and Mommy to eat their way through New York City were scrapped. Daddy stayed home in bed and Mommy and Mr. Dean had parents chattering trying to figure out who the man in our lives are. They could tell that Mr. Dean wasn't Daddy but they could also tell that we just adore him and how many guys are game for a kiddo's birthday party. Very confusing indeed, but this is one of the reasons that Mommy simply adores Mr. Dean and so do we. Feel better Daddy!

And, Bounce U!

Chrissy is a bad driver.  She bangs into people and things all the time.

And smiles while she does!

I tried to climb to the top.

After falling down a few times, I shifted to things a bit more reliable and closer to the ground.

Happy Birthday, Mira!

And, with that, it all went downhill for us Burt Girls.  Chrissy and I wanted the same toy.

It got physical.

Really physical.

And then Christina found herself in time out. 

Sorta.  This time out requires an additional two bucks.

And I was happy to lock her in.

Hey, I wanted Christina to get locked in. Not me!

Mr. Dean, get us out!

He's not very helpful....

So, I'm not going to help him get out...

But, he's so nice that we all ended back in the wind tunnel with him.  He's got magic powers, that Mr. Dean!

Christina smelled pizza. She has an uncanny sense of smell and her nose knows!

Emily, Mira and me, just as it should be!

Christina and ice cream cake, a match made in heaven.

See!

Mira and I are awesome friends. I'm going to miss her when she goes to another kindergarten. Do you think that her family came move by next Saturday?

Mommy was particularly amused that Robert's Daddy taught Christina to wave her big hammer and say, "It's hammer time!"

And on the way out, Robert and his Kiki held hands.

All the way to the cars.

Too bad they can't walk in a straight line...

Back home, Mr. Dean, Mommy and us girls played corn hole.  Or we tried.  It quickly turned into Mommy and Mr. Dean throwing the bean bags as far as they could, shrieking "oops!" and Christina and me running to get the bags and laughing at their bad aim.  They didn't get one bean bag in the hole on the board. 

And then Daddy felt much better so Mr. Dean and Mommy headed over to Mr. Brian and Ms. Betsey's house for dinner.

They make great selfies!

Ah, the power of the pic joiner app!

Back home, we watched movies, ate pizza and drank ice cream.  All is well on the homefront!
