Sorry I skipped a day. Yesterday I was too buys hugging Mom to type. She came home early from Lost Wages because she missed me. And, well, I missed her too.
So, today was the real actual Halloween. It was more of a treat than a trick for me. First of all, I got to sleep in. Dad had an early meeting so he left the house before I got up and Mom came in around 8am to get me out of bed. It was cool having some time with Mom after not seeing her for a couple of days. She dressed me in my striped Halloween kitty shirt and my sparkly striped pants with pumpkin buttons. I looked very festive.
After a tasty breakfast of banana and Cheerios, Mom drove me to school. When we got there, I didn't really want to get out of the car. But Mom promised that it would be fun. So, I let her put my shoes on and she carried me to the door. Then I wanted to walk in on my own and carry my lunch box. I was excited about my lunch because it had chicken nuggets in it. Not the kind from that gross place with the arches, but the kind Dad got for me. Yum.
On our way to room 5 I stopped to wave to my friends in room 1 and R had on the same shirt as me! How cool is that? We walked down to room 5 and Mom signed me in and then walked me out to see my friends. I was having such a nice time with Mom that I didn't want her to leave. But D and J promised it would be OK, so I let her go. Before she left she told me that Dad was going to pick me up early so we could go see my friend L and go do something called trick or treat. Sounded good to me, so I was pretty excited.
Just as promised, Dad showed up around 4 and brought me home where Mom had made yummy chili and corn bread with sweet honey butter. I wanted to eat lots of bread. After dinner, we loaded up and went to Studio City to L & C's house. It was really neat. C loves holidays and she goes all out. There were colorful bags with faces cut out all along the driveway and a jack-o-lantern on the porch. L was dressed as a race car crew guy and C was dressed as a nurse. She looked pretty. After snacking on some more chicken nuggets and grapes, C gave me a glow in the dark necklace and we went outside. I wasn't sure what was happening, but L was doing it and he always does fun things, so I followed along. Now, here's the crazy part. Because it is Halloween, I could just walk up to someone's door and say "trick or treat" and they will hand me some candy. WHAT? This is the coolest day ever. Now, I am supposed to wear a costume, like my giraffe costume, but I didn't feel like it. But people didn't care. They gave me candy anyway. How cool is that.
After stopping at a few houses I was getting tired so Mom and Dad walked with me back to C's house and we said goodnight and went home. I got to play with my glow in the dark necklace the whole way home. It was so fun.
So, at the end of the day, I have to say, I LOVE HALLOWEEN.

Parade Route
So today was the big day. Today was going to be the day I dressed up as a giraffe and marched in my school parade. I was a little unsure of the whole thing but we got off to a pretty good start.
Dad got me up and dressed in my black tights that have little orange pumpkins at the ankles and I had a good breakfast of a banana and some milk and I even had a little tiny piece of waffle. When it was time to go dad asked me what I wanted to dress up as for the parade and I shouted, "Giraffe!" so he put my giraffe costume in a paper bag and wrote my name on it (I thought he was just coloring to have fun and I couldn't figure out why he wouldn't let me have my turn. But he convinced me that I would have plenty of time for coloring once I got to school.)
On the drive in we called mom to say good morning and then we listened to NPR and then we got to school. Dad dropped me off and said that he would be back in a little bit and before I knew it it was time to put on our costumes.
Now, mom and dad have been trying for weeks to get me to wear my giraffe costume at home and on two occasions I have. But for the most part, I wouldn't wear it. But when I saw all of my friends putting on their costumes I wanted to wear mine too. So I did.
Dad showed up and then we had our parade which was really just us walking around the climbing structure two times while the pre-school kids cheered and then we went over to the tree house area and had our snacks and then we could do whatever we wanted. I played with the play-doh for a little while and then I put stickers on a paper pumpkin (good thing mom wasn't there for that! She hates stickers!)
This is me heading back to the play-doh:
When it came time for dad to go I got pretty sad and I cried but my teacher J. was there and she helped me out and I was okay after a couple of minutes. Plus it was getting to be pretty hot and I was able to take off my costume. I liked it and all but I was starting to sweat.
The rest of the day went pretty much as usual and dad laid down with me at bed time to sing songs and look up at the stars and that was nice. It's a different routine but I'm still pretty tired at night and when it's time for bed it's time for bed.
Oh, and two other things; one, I got this scratch on my arm that no one seems to know how I got (and I'm not telling) and two, I bit a friend of mine today. It's not a big deal everyone keeps telling me but still. It's something that I did and I need to own up to it.

Giraffe!!!
That's what I'm going to be for Halloween tomorrow!
Mom bought me this pretty cool giraffe costume a while back and it's been downstairs in my little green chair since then and I've seen it and even tried in on a few times but I've always been a little wary of it for some reason. But tomorrow's the big at school and I have to wear a costume because everyone else will be so I think I'm getting pretty excited to be a giraffe. When dad told me to tell J. what I was going to be I yelled, "Giraffe!" so I think it's going to be fun.
Last year, when I was in Room 0/1, we went to the studio lot and did a little tour. I wasn't even walking then if you can believe it so I had to be pushed in a stroller the entire time. I was dressed up as Little Red Riding Hood for that party although I vaguely remember not wanting to wear the hood. But I was just a baby then.
This year we're going to stay at the school and have a little parade and eat a snack outside and all the parents are welcome. Dad told me that he might show up but I know that mom won't be there because she's in Las Vegas. Even dad night not show up because when he shows up I think it's time to go home and that might just be more upsetting than anything. But I am looking forward to the parade. That sounds like fun.
Overall, today was a pretty good day. I'm having trouble letting anyone clip my fingernails but I'm working on that but the morning and drive in was pretty good. I was a little sad at first but dad talked to me and then I realized I wanted my banana and milk and all was well.
At school we carved a pumpkin which technically turned it into a jack-o-lantern. It was a tiger! I had a good lunch of whole wheat pasta and chicken and some low fat cottage cheese and broccoli and grapes.
Did I mention I love grapes? I sure do. Man, I love grapes.
Dad came and got me and the evening went really well, I ate my dinner (with grapes for dessert!) and I took a bubble bath and dad put lotion on me and tickled me up around my neck like I like so much and then we called mom to say good night. She was pretty busy but I was in no rush so when dad hung up the phone I got really upset. I wanted to talk to mom so dad let me lie on the floor and cry for a minute before he came over and laid down next to me and asked me what I was going to be for Halloween tomorrow and I said, "Giraffe." And we got to talking about that and then we talked about our trip to Disneyland and how much fun we had and how Goofy played peek-a-boo with me and how that made me laugh and dad promised to take me there again some day.
And so there we were. Dad and me, lying on the floor of my bedroom in the dark, looking up at the stars, talking about the good times we've had.
I think I'll get a good night sleep after all.

Lost Wages
The title of this blog was just a joke because I was feeling kind of sad. My mom's in Las Vegas all this week and I so I figured I'd call this post what the flight attendants on Southwest call Sin City (not that I've ever been on a Southwest Flight to Las Vegas or anything. I've just heard tell.)
This morning dad got me up and I was looking for my mom but I remembered that she was on this short trip and would be home in a couple of days so I was okay with it. Dad let me play with the Play-Dough while he got me ready for school and then I had my banana and cup of milk and the teeniest, tiniest piece of waffle you've ever seen and before I knew it, it was time for school.
I had a really good day but as it turns out, I need to pay attention to my clothes when I'm using the potty at school. If I don't hold my dress up it ends up in the water and then I have to get changed and it's a whole big bother so this is something that I need to work on. But it'll come. Just like everything else.
Dad came and got me and we drove home and I had a really good dinner of tofu and tomatoes and grapes and then we went upstairs and I got to talk to mom on the computer and that was pretty cool. She showed me around her room at the Flamingo but all I really wanted was to see her and I gave her lots of hugs and kisses. I gotta tell ya; I'm a big fan of the iChat.
It's bed time and I'm pretty sleepy so I'm going to turn in. I'll let you know how tomorrow goes.
Night night!

Sleeping Arangements and Book Signings
Okay, so a day slipped by me but I have a good excuse -
I started napping in Room 4!
So it may not seem like that big of a deal but I did just transition into Room 5 and after a past few weeks my teachers realized that most of my friends in Room 5 didn't nap as well as I wanted to to so they thought that they could bring me over to Room 4 for my naps. And while I thought this was a good idea and my lead teacher J. laid there with me I think I might spend the next week or so in Room 5 napping just to see how it goes. If I want Room 4 it's always available to me. I'll just have to let them know.
But that was yesterday, Friday. Today is Saturday and mom and dad let me sleep in until 8:30 and that was pretty cool but when the door opened it was
MOM!
That was great. She got me up and we went downstairs and I had a nice hard boiled egg for breakfast and after I got dressed we went to the park and I got to go down the slides. Only this time I wanted to go down face first and so I totally did it and dad was there was to catch me and it was super fun.
We had lunch at The Stand and I like it there an awful lot and I ate my fruit and about half of my hot dog and then mom and dad brought me home and put me down for my nap.
After resting my body for a couple of hours, Mom came in and she was pretty excited. She said, "who wants to go see Clare?" Now, I admit that I didn't know who Clare was, but Mom was so excited and it seemed like something really cool. So, I shouted, "ME!" But I wasn't ready to commit quite yet. First, I needed to play with some playdough. Then, Mom loaded me into the car and we drove out to a place I don't think I've ever been called Westwood. We went to a really cool Mystery Bookstore and there was a bunch of ladies sitting around a table in the middle of the store and they were all paying attention to the one lady with really pretty blue eyes. My Mom said that was her friend Clare and all of those ladies were there because Clare wrote a book and now she has a suitcase full of money. Before I met Clare I got to say hello to some other ladies that are friends of my Mom. Then, I ran around and touched lots of books and saw a baby that looked just like me in the back of a bookcase, and pull a shiny purple bat off the garland and say hi to a really big baby named Maximillion. Then, Mom bought us some books and we got to say hi to Clare. She was really nice and seemed like it would be fun to know her. Mom was happy to see her and said that Clare was one of the people that taught Mom how to make my quilty. I sure do love my quilty, so if Clare had anything to do with it, she is all right in my book.
After a while, all the ladies stood up and started to get ready to go. I ran around and Mom let me climb this really cool ladder that had wheels. Her friend was sitting in the big green chair and she made me laugh a lot. Mom said she is a very funny girl and that she also sings really good. She sang Sugar Honey with Mom and it sounded neat.
We left the bookstore after a while and went across the street to a restaurant. I at my crackers and I was still hungry. So, Mom said goodbye to all of the ladies and we walked to the car. On the way home, we listened to my new CD that goes with my new book. Mom let me listen to the Peanut Butter Jelly song over and over and over and over again.
When we got home, I played with Dad for a bit and then I ate my dinner of chicken, peas, tomatoes and hummus. I think I had a long day because I started to get kind of grumpy. And then I got really really REALLY grumpy. Mom and Dad both had to stay in my room and try to calm me down. But really, I kind of screamed until a few minutes after they put me in my crib and closed the door. It was a pretty exciting day, so I think I was just overwhelmed. We'll see how tomorrow goes. Until then, I will just let Mom and Dad have a break.

Morning Time Blues
I don't know what it is.
I get a good night sleep. The room is nice and dark and quiet and the fan is humming nicely in the background. I have my baby dolls in the crib with me and I know that mom and dad are only downstairs so my sleeping is just fine.
But something gets to me when it's time to get out of bed and get dressed and get the show in the road. Maybe I like the coziness of my crib too much or maybe I just need more than 11 hours of sleep a night but I need to figure it out. I don't think I can keep on fighting with my mom and dad every morning, insisting that I keep m blankie and stay upstairs and keep my jammies on instead of going downstairs and eating my breakfast and going to school. I really need to figure out where this is coming from because it's totally not cool.
The weird thing it, once I'm out the door and we're on our way, everything is fine. This morning I was really upset because my waffle had fallen apart even though it was me who had jammed it into daddy's back, but when I saw that the construction site next door had a big truck hauling away the trash bin, I was fascinated. I sat there and watching the truck and it was great.
When I got to school everything was just the way it always is. E. was there with his little pig E.L. and I said hi to both and we went down to Room 5 (we were running late because there was a big fire at the Sepulveda Pass, right by the Getty Center so the freeways were jammed!) Dad and I put my lunch away and signed me in and then went outside where J. and everyone else was. Dad and I played with some of the balls for a couple of minutes but then he said that he had to go and that sort of made me sad and I cried for a little bit but I got over it in no time.
The day went pretty well.
I made a paper crown that I loved and wore around until it kept falling into my eyes so much that it was interfering with my fun so I put it away and I ate my lunch but it turns out I was still hungry (luckily they had an apple there for me.)
After nap we went outside and I played on the structure and I danced with J. and I colored with L. and before I knew it, dad was there to get me. I was wearing my Elmo shirt because my other one got wet from the drinking fountain (which I LOVE).
As we walked past Room 0/1 I saw my goo friend A. and her mom and dad said we could wait for them and I we did and A. and I ran outside together and we ran down the sidewalk and around the corner together and we hid until our parents found us and it was fun and we laughed and everything was great.
I gave A. a big hug goodbye and dad strapped me in to the cat seat ad we drove home and I had dinner of some yummy pasta. peas and carrots and then some grapes for dessert.
After dinner dad and I went upstairs and I took a bath and right after mom called and I got to say good night and she told me that she would be home tonight (she was currently in Albuquerque, wherever that is).
I'm pretty excited about seeing mom again. I really miss her and love her.
And I'm going to try and be good tomorrow morning.

Hump Day
So it's the middle of the week and things seem to be going pretty well. Mom's still on her trip but I know that I'll see her in a couple of days so I'm hanging tough, not too many tears. This morning I was in a pretty good mood but I don't think I was quite ready to get out of bed because the minute dad started to change me I started to cry. I cried so much I didn't get a chance to eat my breakfast at home like I usually do. But dad was smart enough to bring a banana in the car and so once we got on the road I had something to eat (but no more milk in the car! Only water! e.g.)
On the drive in we called mom and then we called Auntie L. and that was all fun. I really like driving to school with the window down, even on the freeway. I like the wind in my face and I like waving to the buses and people outside the car. It's fun!
At school we had a pretty good day. I got to play with clay and I ate my whole lunch and I took a really good nap (I woke up for a second but my teacher J. was there and she sat with me and I fell right back to sleep, no problem.)
Before I knew it I saw dad coming to get me and I ran for him even though I'm not supposed to run away from the teachers. I can't help myself! I gave dad a hug and we walked back and said a proper good-bye to everyone and then went back to Room 5 so I could get my lunch box and dad could sign me out. We ran into J. and she was getting the late snack ready and I really wanted to stay but dad told me that we had to go home and I could have dinner which, according to him, is way better than snack.
We made it home without a problem, listening to the World Series on the radio and I had a really good dinner of some pesto chicken, tomatoes, avocado and then some grapes for dessert. I was feeling so good afterwards that I even tried on my giraffe costume and it fit perfectly. It's going to be great.
Dad and I went upstairs and we called mom on the computer and I got to see her and I told her I loved her and that I would see her in a couple of days. I missed her so much I hugged the computer and I know that it's not the same thing as hugging mom but it was as close as I was going to get tonight to I took it. I'll see her soon.
Good night! It's time to go to bed and give daddy nosey-osie-osies!
On the drive in we called mom and then we called Auntie L. and that was all fun. I really like driving to school with the window down, even on the freeway. I like the wind in my face and I like waving to the buses and people outside the car. It's fun!
At school we had a pretty good day. I got to play with clay and I ate my whole lunch and I took a really good nap (I woke up for a second but my teacher J. was there and she sat with me and I fell right back to sleep, no problem.)
Before I knew it I saw dad coming to get me and I ran for him even though I'm not supposed to run away from the teachers. I can't help myself! I gave dad a hug and we walked back and said a proper good-bye to everyone and then went back to Room 5 so I could get my lunch box and dad could sign me out. We ran into J. and she was getting the late snack ready and I really wanted to stay but dad told me that we had to go home and I could have dinner which, according to him, is way better than snack.
We made it home without a problem, listening to the World Series on the radio and I had a really good dinner of some pesto chicken, tomatoes, avocado and then some grapes for dessert. I was feeling so good afterwards that I even tried on my giraffe costume and it fit perfectly. It's going to be great.
