today has been pretty good. had some waffles for breakfast time. dad wanted to go to work so after we had all eaten and done our morning things, mom drove him to work. dad got out of the car and went off to do things. mom and i drove around to some yardsales. we only went to 2 because it was kind of late. the first house we went to mom found a tree to buy. what the heck? it was huge. mom was all- there's no way this box is fitting in the car so she took the pieces out and stuffed the pieces in the car next to me. why is there a tree in the car? mom said- it's our christmas tree. is it christmas tomorrow? no. is it christmas in 5minutes? no. i'll let you know when it's christmas time. i hope it's christmas time soon.
we drove around some more and ended up at another yardsale. once you get past 10am there's not much left at these things. i dug around in a pile of toys and pulled out a game. look mom, leapfrog! i know mom likes leapfrog things, they're educational. i turned on the game and it worked. it's a letter writing game. mom hemmed and hawed a bit. i wasn't sure she was going to let me get it but she said- if it's $1 or less, you can have it. i went up to the man in charge and asked the price. he said $1 so mom gave him some money and i did a happy dance.
mom drove us home. i sat on the couch and played with my new toy. it's pretty cool. there's a couple different things you can do on it to help you learn how to write letters. this should help my writing look better for sure.
i had a good long play but then it was time to run around. i jumped up and started running like crazy. mom was not impressed. i got told off and mom made me stand by the door. she got her shoes on and i got my shoes on, out the door we went.
mom drove us to the park next to the house. we drove right past dad on our way. hi dad. got to the park and ran around. dad came walking up a few minutes later. HI DAD! mom made me run down the track that goes behind all the different apartment complexes, that's the whole side of the park! and then i had to run back to the playground. by the time i got back to the slides it was pretty busy so dad said we had to go. booo.
got in the car and dad drove us around. we didn't go home though, we went to a different park. awesome!
there were only a couple kids playing. i played chase with two older kids. the three of us just ran around and around. it was good fun. i got lots of exercise. i went down the slide a few times too and learned about static electricity. my hair would be flat at the top of the slide and by the time i got to the bottom my hair was sticking up all crazy. mom said that was because of static. it was getting dark so back in the car we went.
i'm home now. mom has stuffed me full of food. i'm going to get blueberry and snuggle down on the couch.
