47 Months - August 2008

It's Labor Day weekend and we went to our new
house in Door County. It's also my birthday weekend. We did so
many fun things. We went to the Farm and fed animals. We went to
the lighthouse. We went to Whitefish Dunes (on my actual birthday) and
I got to play in the water and walk on the sand dunes. The water is
very shallow at the dunes and the sand is very soft on your feet. We
went to a grown up restaurant and I wore a very beautiful dress. I
ordered smoked salmon butterfly pasta and it was delicious. Ian ate
the bread and had chocolate milk. He's only two and two kids don't eat
like four girls. Afterwards we got to see the sun set on the Bay and
we had a Dairy Queen - yum! It was a great birthday weekend!
My favorite thing about Door County is
looking at the stars before bed.

Ma came to visit this week. Ian and
I got to spend some time alone with her when Mommy, Daddy and Pa went to
Door County to get us a new house. Ma came to help me celebrate my 4th
birthday at my pool party. It was a princess pool party. I had
princess cupcakes but I also had Spiderman for the boys since they don't
really care for princesses. The party was really fun and I love that
we were at the pool again this year!
Mommy took Ma, Ian and I to the zoo.
It was great. We saw a lot of animals and I got to ride on the train
and the carousel. I also got to get up close and personal with a polar
bear and a gorilla. There was just a tiny pane of glass between us.
I think Mr. Gorilla was getting tired of having his picture taken. He
has a very stern look.

We got to go out on Captain Don's boat.
I asked him if he was a pirate but he said no. Captain Don is
Caroline's grandpa and he is very nice. I got to drive the boat once
we were out on Lake Michigan! I also got to walk from the back of the
boat out onto the front where I sat for a while. There was only a
little ledge and a rope to get out there but I did just fine because I have
little feet.
I went and saw The Princess and the Pea
with Pa at the theater this week. I enjoyed it very much and I got to
meet one of the princesses after the show. I also went with Mommy to
see the Joffrey Ballet at Ravinia. My friend Sara was there with her
sister and Mommy too. It was really fun to watch. There were
some silly dances like when the two men danced like a horse and some
beautiful dances too. I am going to be starting ballet soon and I
can't wait!

Camp is finally over. I am a little sad
about this but now I get to do fun things with Mommy and Ian as well as have
lots of play dates. Speaking of play dates, my friend Sara came over
and we had a princess tea party in the back yard. Ian joined us too
but he's not a princess. We also made a Door County trip this weekend.
It was very exciting. We got a yummy pie from Scaturos. They
have the best pies!

I am into rhyming words.
I take the back of a word like "all" and then I add random consonants to it
to make different words - "ball, small, fall , wall, tall, etc." I
have a lot of pre-reading skills in my basket of tricks.
I have been involved in a
reading program at the library this summer. In addition to the many
books I am reading at home, I have read 23 library books. When I go to
the library I pick one story to retell to the librarian. I then get to
play a game a win a prize. Mommy says that my comprehension is top
notch and that I am a great story re-teller!
