Braving the slide

This morning I woke up around 6:30am. After breakfast and play time Mommy tried to get me to take a nap. I wouldn't settle down enough to go to sleep. Mommy didn't want me to be cranky during story time so we left the house early so I would sleep in the car. Mommy woke me up at the library.

Today's theme was pirates. They had a pirate ship and an octopus in the story room and we saw treasure. Caylee, Noah, Sam, and I crawled around during story time and had a good time. I really enjoyed holding my two blackbirds today. When story time was over we went out to the kids section and played a bit longer. I took about 10 books off the shelf but Mommy said that we still had books checked out so we didn't get any of them. I played on the boat a little and then watched Noah and Caylee move the table and chairs around.

After the library Mommy and I met Gavin and Aunt Lynn at the park. Mommy fed me fruit and oatmeal in the carseat and then dressed me in my thick snow suit so I wouldn't be cold. I wasn't cold but it was a little hard to move. First, I sat on the ground and played with woodchips. Then I climbed the stairs of the equipment up to the tunnels. Then I wanted to go down the slide so Mommy sat me at the top of the slide and with out holding me but hovering in case I toppled she let me inch to the edge and slide down. I liked it so I did it again and again. We also got on the merry go round and the swings. I love the swings - big smiles and giggles when I am in the swing. I had a good time hanging with my cuz. I said goodbye to Aunt Lynn as she buckled me into my carseat and Mommy said goodbye to Gavin as she buckled him in.

We went home and had more food. I tried vegetable beef today. I liked it. When Daddy got home I went to him and hugged him. The three of us hung out on the dining room floor and talked. I even stood up for my own for a long time so Daddy could see. Daddy even decided to help Mommy out and give her a break while he fed me my dinner. I was really good for him and ate it all. He told me that I was really good. After eating it was time for a bath. Daddy read a story about a circus dog to me while Mommy cleaned me.

We got dressed for bed and then I played a little longer. As you know, I really like playing with Mommy's cell phone. I was playing with it and managed to call the house number because the phone rang and the caller ID said "Mommy's Cell" was calling. Mommy cracked up laughing and Daddy picked up the phone and tried to talk to me but I didn't want to put the phone up to my ear and talk back. I went to bed around 8:30pm.
