All I wanted for breakfast was raisin toast and sausage while watching swimming trials for the Olympics swim team.

At 9:30 I knocked on Alyssa's door to see if she could play. 

We did some building.  We made this car.

This is called Team Work.  I showed her how to make a ball of of these magnetic things.
We mostly played outside because it wasn't really hot this early in the morning.  In the afternoon it rained so Anthony, Cole, Alyssa, and I played at each of our homes.

My baseball practice was canceled do to rain and muddy fields.

I watched U.S. girls trying to make the U.S. gymnastics team.  I was amazed at the things the girls could do.  I got sleepy so I made Barbara promise to wake me up at 7pm so I could watch Michael Phelps swim.  True to her word Barbara woke me up at 6:30pm so I could go with Mommy to get my divisional ribbons and make it home by 7pm to watch swimming.

I won district ribbons for ninth place in freestyle and eleventh place in backstroke.  I earned a district medal for third place in my relay.  The district meet is made up of six swim teams.     

I earned a sticker yesterday for excepting, without whining, what Barbara allowed me to do while we were at Splash Town.  I wore a life jacket when I didn't want to.  I accepted that she would not buy me ice cream.  ($6.00 for a little bowl of dip and dots!)  And other things like that.


Mommy and I watched TV with Barbara for an hour this evening.  We watched Olympic swimming time trials.

I was awake until 10pm.  The nap I took kept me from being sleepy at 9:30pm.
