Our Baby Boyer 2: 6 Years, 9 Months...Back and Forth

This has been such a strange school year. We were finally able to go back to school! I loved getting to see my friends, and have a new love of school lunch! I was so excited to start getting it there because we have extra time to eat. I love their "rockin' granola"! I have worked really hard and even qualified for further testing for the gifted program. We had parent teacher conferences over Zoom and Miss Maude said that I am a role model in the class. I am really proud of how hard I have been working.

We went to school for 2 weeks (except Wednesdays) and then had to go home for 2 day for our school to be cleaned. We went back for one day, and now we are back home until January 11th or later. Mom told me that we need to keep people safe and that's why we are staying home. I told her I was glad to not have to wear a mask while I was at home. I had a really positive attitude about it.

I really miss Ellie. She is my best friend and she spends a lot of time in her room doing her schoolwork or talking with friends. I really love it when she comes out to play. Usually we have a camp-out in the living room once a week. The Game of Life is one of my favorite games to play. I always like to have a lot of kids. I said, "I want to have 20,000 kids and name them all the same name!"

I lost my third tooth (top left) when I was eating salad (with my hands) and it got caught on my fingernail. It flew right out! My Tooth Fairy (Poppy Treehead) came and gave me a dollar! Later that week, I called dad "Treehead, with no leaves!" I wanted to buy something later in the month that cost $4 and I said, "I'll have to lose 3 more teeth!"

We have had some rally nice weather this fall. I got to do a little bike riding, and played soccer with mom and Ellie. I also helped with yard work and rode in the wheelbarrow to hold the stuff in. We have also been going on family walks fairly often. Mom and I have met Lillian and Grayson at the park to play Pokemon Go. We went for Electabuzz and Magmar Community Day, and got a lot of shinies! We also did a lot of raid battling, and I got several Legendaries!

We bought pumpkins for Halloween. I painted mine with all four of the Descendants characters' symbols. On Halloween, I got dressed up for a little bit and we went through a drive through at Hy-Vee. We met Papa Rodney at Shakespeare's, where he ordered pizza for us to take home. Then, we came home to get our treats from Bryan and Cindy. At the end of the night, I said, "This is the best Halloween ever!"

I am looking forward to Thanksgiving, but stated, "you eat yourself sick!" Mom told me that we would be eating at home with just us and that she would be cooking by herself. I told her, "No you won't Mommy. I'll help you cook". I always try to have a positive attitude and love to help out!

Beautiful day at the park
