Mommy took Ellie and me to B&B Bagel one morning for our free bagel for miles exercised, and then to Barnes and Noble for Ellie completing her summer reading there. I got a Frozen book too that I didn't want to give up, even though there was a Minion book. I was really tired and threw an epic fit in Barnes and Noble and Mommy had to run after me in the check out line, and hold me while I was thrashing during check out. I really was just tired and did the best I could. I was much better once I got my nap!
I have been throwing everyone off with my sleep lately. Some days, I don't nap until 11:00 and then sleep for over 2 hours and struggle with a second nap. Or I won't take a second nap at all! Other times, I am tired by 9:30 and take two one-hour naps. It makes it hard to really plan anything, but sometimes it is easier to know that I can make it longer without a nap.
We went over to Aunt Lisa's to play with my cousins one day and I got really excited and actually jumped with both feet off the ground! Aunt Michele visited from Maryland the next day and I enjoyed seeing her again. Our family went to Fazoli's and Orange Leaf that night. I enjoy crawling under the chairs at Orange Leaf, and the frozen yogurt isn't bad either! We brought Shakespeare's Pizza over to Nana Arden and Papa Rodney's house one night. I really like it over there!
Mommy took Emily and me up to Kirksville to see Stacey, Ryan, Jaxson, and Harrison one Sunday. We had a lot of fun in the bounce house in their basement. I also just liked watching everyone else play!
I got to do some more swimming lately too! We went with Aunt Lisa and my cousins to the pool one day, and I played a little in the water, but mostly just tried to run away from Mommy and eat animal crackers! We went to Brynn's brother Blake's birthday party at Little Mate's Cove. I really enjoyed going down the slides there. We also got to start our play dates again on Tuesday nights!
Mommy spent a lot of time getting ready for a garage sale and got rid of some of my old baby stuff. I think that was really hard for her to get rid of it, but I really just wanted her to hold me the whole time. I let out some loud screams when I couldn't get to her. It may be hard to separate in a few weeks!
Mommy took Ellie and me to visit Great Grandma Rose one Sunday for a family get together. It was really nice to see family that I haven't seen in a long time. They couldn't believe how much I had grown and how funny I was!
I have figured out how to open internal doors now, so nothing is safe! My favorite door to open is Ellie's, because I love all the doggie stuff and Frozen stuff she has in there. Anytime her door opens, I start panting! I also figured out how to do somersaults. I am so proud of myself when I do them!
I like to know where people and things go, and often put my hands out and say, "Ish?" to ask where someone/thing has gone. I also say "buck-o" or "goo-go" for any character that I recognize. "Goo-go" tends to be reserved for Elmo. I also say something that sounds like "Dat is ist" and Daddy thinks I am saying "That is Twist", but I'm not ready to tell yet!
