More to come!
We did get a snow day this month! I had
such a blast sledding in the backyard! The fence sure does create an
extra barrier though!
We also had an early out this month and Nana
Arden picked me and Corinne up and we played at her house for the
afternoon. Emily and I also went over there one evening when Mommy and
Daddy went to a party for Daddy's school.
We had Math Night at
school and Daddy took me and Emily around to the different rooms. One
of the games was Yahtzee! I hung out with my friend Rose too. I had
Girl Scouts one afternoon. I sold 68 boxes of cookies this year! My
friends and I had several play dates. It is so nice when we get along!
Miss Rachel came over one night and it was so nice to hang out with
her. I really love her! I want to be like her one day and be a foster
mom for dogs and cats.
Mommy likes to take me on errands with
her. She says I am her number
one helper. Sometimes I like to go, and sometimes I would rather just
stay home. I really like getting cookies at HyVee, and going to the
library. My current favorite book series are Jigsaw Jones and A to Z
Mysteries.
I passed 1st grade ST math this month. I have been
working so hard on this, and now I get to do challenge math before going
to 2nd grade math. To celebrate, we went to my favorite place-Orange
Leaf!
This really is a month of celebrations! We celebrated
Valentine's Day at school. I made a dog for my Valentine's box. (Would
you expect anything different?) I wrote out my Valentine's really fast
without any help. I sure am growing up fast! Mommy planned our class
party. We exchanged Valentine's, painted a heart craft, played a fun
game, did an I Spy sheet, celebrated my birthday, and then ate lots of
sugar! The game involved us running to get a heart shape with how we
were supposed to return to our team. I had to do a bear crawl!
The
next day was Bella's birthday party at the MAC. We went swimming,
jumped in a bounce house, and played soccer. It was so much fun!
Corinne spent the night when we got home and hung out until my party the
next day.
That right! The day came for my dog party at Paint the
Town. Bella, Brynn, Blake, Gabe, Ella, Rose, and Corinne came. While
the paintings were drying, we played with balloons until Mommy yelled
"stop!" Then we had to pop our balloons and do the command on the paper
inside. Mine said to play dead. It was really funny!
I'm looking forward to my family party and Emily's birthday this next week!

Down the long hill, then back up!

Pure joy!
This is what happens when you sled on the back of the sled with Mommy and drag your braid behind you!
