I woke up at 7:17a at Mimz and I crawled into bed with her to finish sleeping for awhile longer.  I am her favorite little boy.

We had a picnic at school today.  Mimz let me buy my lunch at school so I had dinosaur chicken nuggets eating on a blanket on the school play ground.  Oh, what fun.

Barbara picked me up and she brought me a container of apple juice.  I recognize the container... it was a chocolate milk container from old McDonald's with the outside label removed.  Barbara likes it because it has a lid and fits nicely into the cup holder of my car seat and it holds just the right amount of juice for the trip home.  We talked about police, sheriffs, and constables.  She doesn't know the difference and she doesn't know what kind of guns they carry.  She doesn't know the answer to a lot of questions I ask.

Anna Kate was awake when I got home so we took her for a stroller ride.  She loves being outdoors and the weather was perfect.  When we got home from our walk, we all watched Barbara clean out the waterfall.... I guess that means it is almost time for PaPa to get home from Nigeria.... He gets home this coming Wednesday.

 I was the look-out, watching for bad guys.

 I didn't get wet helping clean the waterfall, because I stayed up high in the bush.

AK was getting fussy, so we moved to the garage, while Barbara put away the wet-vac she uses to clean the waterfall.  AK likes sitting up like a big girl.


While Anna Kate took a nap, Barbara and I played with Play Dough for over an hour.  When I was three- and four-years-old we used to play with it almost every day, but we play with it less since we built Car Town.  We made several different animals, and a pizza for GGM, and used a press to make many different kinds of rope.

I had a bad spell that lasted about five minutes.  One day I will learn it is more fun to behave properly than to be in trouble.

Anna Kate got to participate in her first orange peel fight.  Really she didn't play but we did put a piece of orange peel on her head so she could think she was playing.  When her mom arrived she had the orange peel on her head.  It made Kristan laugh to see her baby girl like that.  We did tell Kristan that orange peels are the only food we throw.   A funny thing: GGM was cleaning the top of the refrigerator when she found a piece of old dried up orange peel.  She saved it to show me and of course I knew what it was.    

When Daddy arrived to pick me up, I had a handful of orange peel that I threw on him.  He thinks we are pretty funny.

Mimz took Daddy, Mommy, and me to eat at a steakhouse.  Yummy.
