The reading teacher tested me and gave Mommy the results. Mrs. Sicht told Mommy and Daddy that I was reading at a level 4 which surprised them since I am already reading some chapter books by myself. Well, Mrs. Hays tested me at a level 24 and stopped there! That is late 2nd grade, and the highest in my class (although that has been kept a secret from me.) I just love to read so much! I'm really enjoying math too. I love homework and wish they would give me more!
We had an ice cream social at Cedar Ridge already this year and I really enjoyed showing off our new school to Daddy. We also already did school pictures. Mommy is trying really hard to have me treated like every other kid at school and not have special treatment since she is there. However, she ate with all new students first in her office and since I am new, that included me!
I also joined Girl Scouts again this year. I am in a different troop, with girls from my new school. There are only 4 Daisies in my troop and I really enjoy it. We meet every other Wednesday after school until 5:00 which is a lot different than my old troop.
I had a sleepover with Bella at her house and at my house this month. We had a really good time, aside from a few minor spats. However, we discovered that not only can Bella and I not sleep in the same bed, we can't sleep in the same room! At Bella's house, I kept rolling over on top of her. She didn't like that very much. She ended up sleeping in her parents' bed after her mom sat in her room with me until I fell asleep. At my house, Bella said I made too much noise and rolled over too much. We finally fell asleep after Mommy laid on the floor with Bella. Those were some late nights!
We had a play date at my house the afternoon/evening after the first day of school. That sounded like a good idea at the time, to hear how everyone's first day was, but everyone ended up in tears! The next 3 play dates went better, and we even started soccer practice again. Get this-Bella, Brynn, and Corinne are on my soccer team-Team Brazil! I scored two goals in my first game! This is going to be a great year!
I had so many birthday parties this month too-Carrie's at Flipz, Ashley's at an indoor pool, Corinne's at her house (all the same weekend!), and Riley's at a hotel for a tea party. It had been a long time since I saw Riley!
We had a fun visit from Aunt Heather, Uncle Sean, Ashley, and Ian. I had a lot of fun with them, especially making videos on Ashley's school iPad. Ashley really likes babies and spent a lot of time with Emily, and I felt a little left out. We also had dinner at Nana Arden's over Labor Day weekend.
I also got to have some extra time with Mommy this month. We ran some errands and went to a Mizzou volleyball game again. I also get to spend some alone time in her office and in the car with her. We have both missed that time!
Mommy took Emily and me to North Callaway for their homecoming parade. It was a lot of fun, and I got so much candy! Being the principal's daughter has its perks!
Another change is that I spend a lot of time in my room. Sometimes I am reading, but a lot of the time I am cleaning out my room. I have given most of my toys to Emily because I am "over My Little Ponies" and I want my room to be neater without so much stuff in it. In fact, I said all I want for Christmas and my birthday is my ears pierced and earrings. I'm growing up so fast!
Funny thing I said this month-"I have the chicken pox-I'm cold!" (I think I meant the goose bumps!)
I absolutely love my sister!
