Day 121

Dear Daddy,
Mommy woke up in a panic today because she didn't hear her alarm go off at 8 and when we woke up it was 8:40! Normally this would have made her happy but today we had Gymboree at 10. So we rushed and got up and fed the doggies and ate a quick breakfast and then Mommy jumped in the shower and we got ready to go. We made it in time :) Miss Rachel told us what Gymbo's birthday is going to be like on Saturday. She said there will be cupcakes, lots of art projects and fun and dancing and she even said Gymbo will make a special appearance. I can't wait.

After Gymboree we went to lunch at Submarina like we always do. It was so yummy (like it always is). Then we went home and played. Mommy let me chase her around the living room and the house for about 45 minutes. I thought it was soo much fun. I laughed and laughed and it tuckered me out for my nap. I took a 2 hour nap! Mommy liked that. Then we headed off to the grocery store and got a few things.

When we got home I went outside with Grandpa and "helped" him work on the boat while Mommy took Lana for her walk to the dog park. I had lots of fun and when Mommy got home and it was dinner time I threw a fit. I didn't want to get out of the boat. But Grandpa said I can help him tomorrow after work too.

Mommy keeps telling me every day that Friday night we are giving my binkys to the babies. Thats tomorrow so Im trying to enjoy every last minute of them.

I love you and miss you Daddy. So do Mommy and Lana.

XOXOXOXO

Love

Day 120

Dear Daddy,
I let Mommy sleep in until 8:15 so she was happy about that. Mommy made turkey sausage and whole grain waffles-my favorite!

Then we got online and waited for you to get on. It's my favorite part of the day-talking to you :)
After that we got ready for the day and played outside until lunch time.

I had some pasta and yogurt for lunch.

After lunch it was nap time and then after that Mommy and I went and got smoothies at Jamba Juice. I love when Mommy lets me have my own.

We had a pretty relaxing day for the most part. I love you and miss you Daddy. So do Mommy and Lana.

XOXOXOXO
Love

Day 119

Dear Daddy,
Today we slept in a little bit so Mommy was happy about that. Then we woke up and got online to talk to you. After that we got ready for the day and then it was time for lunch believe it or not.

I had some popcorn chicken and pasta and applesauce and Mommy had her turkey burger and some brown rice. I ate all of my lunch so Mommy took me outside to play for a little while. Then it was nap time. Mommy ended up taking a nap with me because she had a headache. When we woke up we had a snack and then Mommy got me ready to go to the park with Grandpa. When he got home from work, Grandpa took me to the park for an hour! I had so much fun Grandpa said. While we were at the park, Mommy took Lana to the dog park.

We had leftover spaghetti for dinner and it was good! I got a popsicle for dessert again since I ate all my dinner.

I love you and miss you Daddy. So do Mommy and Lana.

XOXOXOXO

Day 118

Dear Daddy,
I've been waking Mommy up at around 7:30 every morning. She is getting used to it though.

We got up and ate breakfast and then Mommy took a shower and we got ready. Then you got online and I showed you how I can look at a number and know what number it is. Aren't you proud of me Daddy? Mommy keeps telling me how smart I am. I just think its fun to read and count.

We ate lunch and then played outside until nap time. After my nap Mommy had to go see her doctor, but when she came home we played airplane and rocket ship. When Grandpa got home he barbecued chicken on the grill and we had that and rice pilaf for dinner. It was very yummy. I ate 2 plates full of food so Mommy let me have a popsicle for dessert.

I was such a good boy at nap time and bed time today. I layed in bed and fell asleep without Mommy having to hold me or rock me in your bed. Mommy was so proud of me.

She said on Friday night I am not going to have my binkys anymore. We are going to send them to the babies that need them. She is hoping I do well.

I love you and miss you Daddy. So do Mommy and Lana.

XOXOXOXO

Love

Day 117

Dear Daddy,
How are you? We are doing good here. Today we didn't do anything to special. We played outside until lunch time after we had talked to you. Then I took a nap and Mommy went and got her nails done using the gift certificate that Tali gave her for her birthday.

When she got home her and Grandpa took me and Lana over to the park. We took Lana to the dog park first, but then we took her on a walk around the park and I got to run around. We had a great time except that I wasn't listening and kept running away.

We had spaghetti for dinner and it was good! I love you and miss you Daddy. So do Mommy and Lana.

XOXOXO

Love
Alexander

Day 116

Dear Daddy,
I was so happy to get to talk to you as soon as we got up this morning! I love talking to you and seeing you on the computer. We had to say bye bye though because Mommy had to take Lana to the vet. Im sure Mommy will tell you all about it, but all I know is that she is on a new special type of food.

Mommy has decided she isnt taking away my binkys until next Friday. Starting tonight I'm only allowed to have them at bed time and nap time. Then that way next Friday it should be a little easier to get rid of them since I won't have been having them during the day all day.

Mommy got us chinese food for dinner because Aunt Krista and Uncle Curt are gone for the weekend so Grandma and Grandpa were eating out too.

I had lots of fun today playing outside and then playing with Mommy inside after dinner.

I love you and miss you Daddy. Mommy and Lana love and miss you too.


XOXOXOXOXO

Day 115

Dear Daddy,
Since today was Mommy's birthday I made sure she had a good day. I woke up and gave her a big hug and kiss. She was happy about that, but was hoping I would sleep in on her birthday. She didn't sleep well again last night and I woke her up at 730. So we went out and I ate breakfast and then we laid on the couch and watched tv and both fell back asleep til 930. Then you got online and we talked to you for a while.

We then got ready and ate lunch and then I took a nap. When I woke up from my nap I played with Grandpa while Mommy went to the post office to mail out your package.

Then when mommy got home we played outside til dinner time. Mommy made dinner for me and then she got ready because she was going out to dinner with Amy and Tali for her birthday.

i was okay for Grandma and Grandpa while Mommy was gone. I actually went to sleep for Grandma. Mommy was surprised that I did. But she was happy because this just means that when you get home, you and Mommy can have date nights and Grandma and Grandpa can watch me and i will go to bed for them. It was a big step for me.

I love you and miss you Daddy. So do Mommy and Lana.

XOXOXOXO
Love
