4 Years, 3 Months...Family fun and tag-a-long

More to come...
We have had a lot of family fun this month as school is ending for the rest of my family.  Because Ellie spent the night at a friend's house, Mommy and Daddy took me out for doughnuts!  Mommy took me to her school so I could play with the chicks in Ellie's class.  They were so cute, but I got bored pretty quickly.  When the weather got nicer, our family planted flowers and seeds.  I can't wait to see what grows!  Our neighbors rescued kittens in our backyard and are caring for them.  They are so cute!
Grandma Kathy and Grandpa Tom came up for Ellie's soccer game and we went out to Cracker Barrel and hung out afterwards.  We went to Nana Arden's later that day.  The next day, Daddy left for a week to go on a trip to San Diego, so it was an all girls week.  I helped Mommy do some shopping and we went to Jonathan's birthday party.  I had to go to a meeting with Mommy too, and entertained myself pretty well.  We tried to watch Benji for a family movie, but it was way too scary.  We fast forwarded to the happy ending part!
When Daddy got back, I said, "Daddy, we missed you!"  He took me to Ellie's 5K and I got to play on the playground.  Then, we went to Ellie's soccer game.  Again, just tagging along!  It will be my turn soon!
I have continued with dance, even though I have stated I don't want to.  My recital is coming up and then I will switch to gymnastics!  Mommy took me to Messy Night with Parents as Teachers and I got to see Katrice again.  I loved playing in the Orbees and with the sponges and water.
My graduation is coming soon, even though I won't move up to the pre-K class until August.  We got to walk to the park and Mommy surprised me by coming!  I told her, "I am really enjoying this day!"  We played on the playground and with a giant beach ball.  I got really sad and scared when Mommy left because I didn't think she would know where to get me.  I cried myself to sleep at naptime because I didn't think she knew I went back to school.
We have spent a lot of time with Daddy's family this month.  Aunt Michele came into town and we went to Aunt Lisa's for pizza.  The next day was Jonathan's graduation party.  I went down to the "beach" with Nana Arden and ate a TON!  I have been doing that a lot lately.  I think I am having a growth spurt.  One night, I said, "My belly hurts.  It hurts!  I guess I shouldn't eat any more food."
I have been obsessed with playing "I spy" in the car.  I don't know why Ellie and Mommy groan when I ask to play.  I have played so hard at school and home that I have all kinds of scrapes and bruises.  I said, "I'm all boo-boo'ed up!"
Those chicks were so cute!
So were the kittens!
