today has been pretty good. got up this morning and dad had already left. mom said that she and dad got up super early. why? i don't know. they do that some time. makes no sense to me. i got up at my usual 7am. mom turned on pbs kids for me and i curled up on the couch for a bit.
mom asked me if i wanted any breakfast- no thanks. she had a bowl of something. the computer started beeping and it was time to talk with jammma and grdad in england. i sat and talked with them for a bit. i told grdad to show me a bunch of different things. i wanted to see people's phones and the upstairs. i am very bossy. when i was talking with them mom's phone went off and she left the room to talk.
i talked a bit with jammma and grdad. at 9, mom said we had to do other stuff so i said goodbye to them. mom then clicked the skype button and called dana bunny and gdad. they don't have the best connection so i couldn't see video of them. i told dana bunny to show me gdad's calculator though so i could calculate consecutive numbers. mom said- no showing things just talk. so i had a quick chat with dana and gdad. we didn't talk long because their connection kept stopping.
when i was done chatting with everyone. mom got me dressed and we went off to the grocery store. we got the things on the shopping list and paid. nothing super exciting about the shopping today. on the way home mom asked me if i ever had breakfast time- um, no. can i have some grapes?
mom drove us home. after she unpacked all the things we bought she made me 2 peanut butter samiches. i ate them up because i was super hungry. i got some grapes and chewy fruit treats.
after lunch it was back to the car for our first event of the day: halloween at the library. mom and i got to the library super early. mom wasn't taking any chances with the parking. we found a space no problem, being that we were an hour early for the event. i helped mom return her pile of books and then we went to the kids section to hang out.
the library was good. i played outside for a bit. i got to use the kid's computer for awhile. that killed just enough time for the event to start. mom and i made a quick trip to the bathrooms and i got dressed in my buzz costume. we got in line with the other kids. there were mostly girls so it was all princesesses. one girl came dressed as a ladybug, that was pretty cool. i got a fake tattoo put on- creepy scarecrow face. it glows in the dark. we all sat in the conference room. three of the library girls told a spooky story. when the story was done it was time for games. i did pluck a duck- you grab a toy duck out of the pool and what ever number on his butt gives you a certain prize. i got a plastic top for duck butt 7. after that i did bowling, it's kind of like skittles. i knocked over 6 pins and got a bouncy ball. cool. there were a few other games but the line was long so mom and i went and got a cupcake. i helped mom put some sprinkles on it. she wrapped it up and off we went out the door. mom was all- grab the cake and run. the place was getting full of kids and it was super loud so i was ok with going.
mom drove us back home and the cupcake quickly disappeared. i've no clue what happened to it. hung out for a bit, playing and watching pbs kids. all the shows were about halloween things.
around 5 mom jumped up and said it was time to go out again. what? mom said we were going to a church fall festival. ok. so off in the car we went. we found the place and parked no problem. we were super early so mom and i walked around the neighbourhood a bit. on our walk we found a pretty cool park. i had some play time. i didn't want to leave. i got a little fussy with mom when she said it was time to go. she said- look there's a bouncy castle at the event, and that was enough for me. I WANT TO GO ON THE BOUNCY CASTLE!
the fall fest was good even if mom did try to make me eat a hot dog.
the church did a good job. i went in the bouncy castle first and it was wonderful. no one was really there yet so i got to have a good long bounce. when i got out mom helped me put my costume on and then i put my shoes back on. i walked around and everyone was all- hey it's buzz! i got a bag of cotton candy. there were a bunch of games and i did a couple. i put my hand in the witch's cauldron, i pulled out 2 spider rings and a bunch of chopped tomatoes, gross and weird. i did bowling again and got some candy for knocking down pins. on the ring toss i got a paddle ball for a prize. mom assures me it's a super cool prize. after the games it was time for food. mom ordered a hot dog. there was no way in hell i was going to eat one of those. just the thought of it made me cry. mom loaded up the rest of her plate with carrots, apples and a banana. that's what i had for dinner. all the other kids had burgers and hot dogs, i had veggies and fruit. when i was done mom let me share her brownie.
i got to have one more bounce at the bouncy castle before we left. one the way out we passed the pop corn maker and i watched the seeds hatch into popcorn babies. mom got a bag. i licked one but didn't want to eat any. i did have fun stepping on the dropped popcorn on the ground.
and that was my day. got home and dad showed up a little while later. we're going to sit on the couch and eat candy now.
