I have this habit of crying/whining when I don't get what I want... and Barbara is tired of it.  So she and I had a talk about how I should act, what I should do when I don't get what I want.  We also talked about how she was going to put me in Time Out for a while when I cry or whine.  Well, it does not count if I am hurt... then it is okay to cry.

We played with Play Dough and trucks for well over an hour.  Some of my Play Dough is getting old so we are mixing colors and some of it is pretty, while some of it is not so pretty.  My favorite design is snakes twisted to make candy cane like rings.  Then I like to make them flat by running my big construction trucks over them.  
 I fell asleep for the last 15 minutes of the drive to my swimming lesson.  But I was in rare form cutting up and having a hard time listening to Miss Sherrie's instructions.  Miss Sherrie also gave Mimz and Barbara some instructions on how they could help me.  They are not suppose to lift me up out of the water to help me get up, they are supposed to encourage me to swim to the side of them pool, helping if needed by pulling on one of my hands.   Also when I am going under water to retrieve a ring or toy, they can help push my head down ( a little) and then let go and I will come back up on my own.   I need a lot of practice kicking, using big arms motions, and being a starfish (floating). 

Mimz took me home with her. 
When Daddy arrived we sat on the couch and he told me about his day.  He told me what it is he sells and he explained what a customer is.  I love these talks and am very interested in learning.
After dinner I cooled off with a Popsicle.
