3 11/12...Merry Christmas!

This month has been full of Christmas and family fun!  We started off the month with an open house at Miss Annie and Mr. Kenny's house.  It was so much fun to be there.  Just like old times!  We had a visit from Stacey, Ryan, and Jaxson.  It was good to see old friends.  Then came visiting all of the families for Christmas, and then them visiting us.  That was so much fun and I loved being with all of my cousins.  We really love each other!  I had a fever right after Christmas, but I got better quickly.  My favorite thing to play with from Christmas is My Little Ponies every day.  I was so excited to get all of them, but really love Princess Candence and Shining Armor.
I was Star of the Week at pre-school last week!  I got my information and pictures on the board, brought a book Berenstain Bears Forget Their Manners, had a show and tell with my new My Little Ponies, and got to watch My Little Pony Royal Wedding movie with my snack-popcorn, raisins, Cheerios, and marshmallows!  It was such a great week!
A couple of funny things I said were, "Can I get a little help here?" and "Madamagascar".
I'm so excited to be turning 4 next month, but right now, I get to show I know my fractions!  I am 3 and 11/12!

3 3/4 Years Old...Lots to be Thankful for

This has been a great month for family!  I got to visit all of my family over Thanksgiving and it was wonderful!  I have gone to a couple of basketball games for my daddy's school and it was really cool cheering his team on!  We had our family pictures taken and I was a total ham for the camera!
I am really getting into the Christmas spirit.  I love to sing "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer", "Frosty the Snowman", and "Santa Claus is Coming to Town."  I also helped put up the Christmas tree and Christmas lights outside.  That was really neat!  I got to see Santa at an early Christmas gathering.  I was so surprised when he knocked on the door!  I told him that I wanted Shutterfly,Shining Armor, Princess Cadence, and Nightmare Moon.  I cried later when I realized I forgot to tell him that I want a My Little Pony castle!  Good thing I got another chance, because mommy and daddy brought me to Bass Pro to see him again!  I actually got Fluttershy already from St. Nicholas!  I said, "I knew I should quit sucking my thumb" when I got him because that's what I was supposed to do to get the My Little Pony's.
I have had a couple of play dates with Carrie too.  She is a lot of fun.  I went to the library a couple of times and really enjoyed playing with the doll house there.  Mommy left for a meeting one weekend and I got to hang out with daddy.  I've said some really funny things this month too.  I keep saying, "I'm not 3 and a half anymore.  I'm three and three quarters!"  I told daddy, "I don't like smelly trees.  I want a tree that smells like birthday cake!"  I whispered to mommy, "Don't tell anyone-it's a secret: I love you!"  I was also sent home from pre-school with a fever (which I didn't have-malfunctioning thermometer!)  Mommy said that I was eating like a horse, to which I replied, "Neigh, neigh, neigh!"
On December 14th, mommy came home and hugged me tighter than she usually does.  I could tell that something sad happened, but I also could tell how happy she is that I am in her life.  Daddy was glad to see me the next day too.

3 3/4 years old...Parties, parties, and more parties!

I will be the first to tell you that I am not 3 1/2 anymore...I am 3 and...something!  This has been a really fun month for me.  I had a lot of play dates with Carrie and I went to Brynn and Trey's birthday parties.  Daddy took me to Brynn's because Mommy was out of town for a while.  I had a lot of fun with Daddy.  He is really good to me.  We also went to a pumpkin patch with Auntie Heather, Uncle Sean, Ashley and Ian.  I got to go on a hayride and took everyone through a corn maze.  Ashley and I kept saying, "dead end!"  I also playing in a huge tub of corn kernels and they got everywhere, even in my underwear!
Halloween was this month too!  I chose to be Cheer Bear!  I loved my costume.  Mommy left it at school for them to change me into before our party, but my teachers left it downstairs.  Everyone was dressed up but me and I was really sad for a long time.  Mommy brought it up just in time.  I enjoyed the parade after the party and went through the haunted house they made.  Daddy had to go back to work after the party, but Mommy took me trick-or-treating.  We went to Nana Arden's, Miss Annie and Mr. Kenny's, and around the neighborhood. 
I get really tired at pre-school.  One night, Mommy found me asleep in my room at 6:45 with the lights on!  I was really bossy and crabby one weekend and into the next week.  Mommy picked me up one day and I was sobbing.  I said, "I just can't stop crying!"  The teachers thought I was being overly dramatic, but I had a fever!  I spent the next day snuggling with Nana Arden.  We also went over to Nana Arden's a couple nights because Aunt Michelle was in town.  She is so much fun!  We played Play Doh together.
I've said some funny things too.  I asked Mommy, "What do you have to say for yourself?"  I told Daddy, "I don't like smelly (Christmas) trees.  I want one that smells like birthday cake!"  I also asked, "Will we move when I am Star of the Week?"  (Some kids had left pre-school, so they got to be Star of the Week before they moved.)
See, I'm 3 3/4!
