Well, I haven’t quite figured out my schedule yet, that’s for sure. I woke up at 5:20 and hung out in the bathroom while Mom showered and played in her bedroom while she got dressed for work. We took lots of breaks to read books. I really like this quality time with Mom in the mornings! We left around 6:30 and took of for pre-school. I wasn’t quite as patient, especially at the end after we got off the highway.
Shockingly, Mom was worried that I’d have a harder time the second day at pre-school, because I’d know that Mom was leaving for the day. Mom, you misunderestime me! As soon as we walked in the door I went to say to hi to my friends and when Mom said bye, I just waved and said “bye bye.”
Probably the most shocking thing about today is that I ate Cheez-its for my morning snack. Cheez-its? Really? Does Dad know? I needed a bit more TLC than Tuesday and Miss Mimi gave me plenty of hugs and cuddles, which was great. I also discovered that pre-school has a whole lot of kitchen toys to play with — just like the ones I keep in my cabinet at home. I also had a really good time playing on the outdoor climber. Mom didn’t come by at lunch, but Dad called in the afternoon to make sure that I was doing okay. Guys, really, I’m a big girl now!
I was exhausted and irritable on the ride home but was much happier once we got home. I ate really well, read books with Mom, and got a bath. I barely made it through Goodnight Gorilla and was asleep the instant my head hit the crib.
So, if my pattern-recognition skills are worth anything I’ve noticed that I go to pre-school every other day, so Friday should be a day with Nana — and sure enough, it was! I woke up in a great mood to match the great weather outside. I ate really well and then Nana and I spent an hour outside in the yard and then on a walk across Division. I played until 11:30, had lunch, and then napped — which is not my usual home schedule. I think Mom, Dad, and Nana are still figuring out what’s up.
I slept until 3:15 (!) and was so excited to see Grandpa Yagan! He hasn’t been over to our house in so long. Mom was here, too (she gets early dismissal on Fridays during the summer!) which made it even better. I had a great time playing with Grandpa’s head and hat. He also really likes feeding me, so he gave me my snack.
After he left, I played with Mom until dinner, which I ate pretty well except for the fish. Then we played, read, cleaned up, and I was asleep by 7:15. What a week!
Last year, I decided to wake up really early!
