This morning Mom let me feed myself a little bit of cereal with a spoon. I didn't make as big of a mess as I could have, but that's okay. I made up for it later.

Instead of taking a nap with me this morning, Mom stayed up and folded yesterday's clean laundry. When I got up, she fed me a little of the oatmeal I hadn't finished with some green peas.

I asked for the spoon and when she gave it to me, I ran to the laundry pile and pretended to eat the laundry with the dirty spoon. I also took 2 pairs of clean pants and wiped my tray clean with them. I also left a puddle of oatmeal in a third pair of pants over there, we'll see if she ever figures out how I did that. Tee Hee.



Please, Mommy, don't stick the peas in my eye.



After lunch we went for a walk. We went to pay rent & enjoy the sunshine. It was nice & warm. Mommy & I both wore hats. She stood with me in front of the mirror and pointed to her hat, then put one on me while I watched and pointed to my hat. I tried to take it off, but then I figured out what she was doing. She pointed to her hat and then to mine again, so I had to agree, we were pretty cute like that - matching and all. But she better not want to do this often.

When we got back from our walk, it wasn't long before I needed another nap. Mom made some cheesy shells and when I got up, I got to eat some of them while she did her gardening. It was cooling down, so she let me sit right inside the door so I could watch her but stay warm.

If she stepped out of sight, I'd just call her and she'd talk to me. If I really wanted to see her, all I had to do was be quiet for a moment or two. Then she would leap suddenly into view. I don't think that she minded that I laughed at her.


This evening was exciting because Mom received a Mary Kay box. There's always a bunch of little stuff I like to chew on in there, but the sport is in grabbing something while Mom isn't looking. Otherwise, she takes it away.

Mom says those things are important and need to be in good shape because they're helping to build our future.

I think that's fine but she still ought to let me chew on some of it. Don't you think?
